Easley, South Carolina
Nestled in the Foothills of
the Blue Ridge Mountains,
the city of Easley was chartered in 1874.
Robert Elliott Holcombe was responsible
for the establishment of Easley as a town when
he built a depot for the railroad company.
The town began its business growth
with the Easley Oil Mill in 1889.
Easley's continued development came
to create a town with a proud tradition,
a progressive vision, and southern hospitality.
