Edmundson-Fox Memorial
Near this spot William Edmundson, an English Friend, held in May 1672, the first religious service on record in Carolina.
Six months later, George Fox, Founder of the Religious Society of Friends also visited this section and held meetings among the colonists. Here were the beginnings of the religious life of a great state.
Marker is at the intersection of Church Street (Business Route 17) and King Street, on the right when traveling north on Church Street.
