Long Description:Hebrew Union Congregation
Organized 1880, succeeding a congregation formed 1871. Once the
state's largest Jewish temple. Two of Greenville's early mayors, the first
merchant, public officials, leaders in literature, education, business, law, and
civic affairs worshiped here. Replacing a wooden temple built 1882, the
present temple was built in 1906. ~ text of marker
