Excellence Since 1908
Over a century ago in upstate South Carolina, an orphanage began producing monuments as a means to generate income. At that same time in a little town called Hartsville, half-way across the state, farmer John Francis Brown began seeking an activity to fill his slow off-season. When he found out that the orphanage needed help selling their monuments, he stepped right in to help. Traveling by horse and buggy, he began assisting families with their monument needs across the developing Pee Dee region.
His part-time hobby became a passion, and in 1908, he founded Hartsville Marble Works on Main Street in Hartsville, SC, establishing what is now more than a century of service excellence across the southeastern United States.
