Easley History
In 1870, railroad officials decided to connect Charlotte NC and Atlanta GA; three grade sites were surveyed with one being routed through Anderson SC and Athens GA, another through
Pendleton SC and Cornelia GA and the last through Pickensville; however, General William King Easley who was the first Adjutant General of South Carolina and prominent railroad attorney and member of legislature drew up a route that was one mile north of Pickensville which eventually was the route chosen. The Charter of Easley Station was ratified on January 20, 1874 with a land area of one square mile; in 1901 the Charter was changed to make the village a town.
