Mauldin Legacy Book
History
In 1984 a group of citizens called the Mauldin Legacy Committee published a book about Mauldin’s history titled “Mauldin’s Legacy and Its People.” The authors are Mae Walker, Mary Forrester, Martha Clyde, Karen and Adam Fischer. The book is often referred to as the “Mauldin Legacy Book” and remains the primary source of historical information on the City of Mauldin. Included in the original manuscript is information about Mauldin’s early history, cemeteries, photos of families, organizations, churches, schools, communities, professionals and our local politicians. The book is truly a “Legacy” and was beautifully done by the original Legacy Book Committee. We thank them for their contribution and look forward to the new publication.
25th Anniversary Edition
2009 marks the 25th anniversary of the Mauldin Legacy Book’s original publishing date. The City of Mauldin is compiling pictures, news articles, and local family, church, school, business and nonprofit histories to publish the 2nd edition of the Mauldin Legacy Book. The historic 2nd edition will also commemorate the 2010 Centennial Celebration of Mauldin’s 1910 Incorporation.
