The Yorkville Enquirer reported on Oct. 22, 1890 – “In the news from Gould, the Bankhead family is finishing a neat and commodious store which will be ready soon, and Mr. Elias Inman also expects to open a mercantile, which will give us four stores. Mr. T.B. Ratchford almost lost his cotton house to a fire but it was extinguished without much damage.”
City Directories and History: The Glenn – Inman home is one of York County’s lovely antebellum Italianate style homes on the out skirts of York, SC. It appears to have been constructed just prior to the Civil War by Sheriff Robert H. Glenn and later sold in 1893 to Elias Inman. It was purchased at public auction and resold to Claude Monroe Inman of Bullock’s Creek whose decedents maintain the home beautifully in 2013. Many of the original outbuilding remain intact.
