These two cornerstones sit at the right of the main entrance of Bethlehem Lutheran Church. They sit at right angles to each other, the older one (1901) faces the steps of the church while the newer one (1951) sits faces the road.
According to the older cornerstone, this church was incorporated in 1789 at a spot about 5 miles from the current location
There also an South Carolina historical marker which I also waymarked near the cornerstones.
Year of construction: 1951
