Family records from various Plumleys and Lindseys, mostly centered around the family of Lillie Lindsey Plumley.

Primarily documentation of the first power plant, electric lines, electric lights, waterworks, and sewer in Greer. Other documents reference the police hunt for blind tigers, including hiring private investigators and requesting detectives from the Governor's office; correspondence with the Piedmont & Northern about the construction of a depot on the town square; documents referencing a serious business recession in 1915-16 resulting in the city of Greer unable to pay its bills; health and sanitation; and other miscellaneous city-related documents.
