Myrtle Springs

Myrtle Springs, off Farm Road 315 twelve miles from Athens in Henderson County, was established in the late 1800s. In the mid-1930s the settlement had a school and a number of houses. After World War II the school closed, and in the early 1990s only a cemetery and a few houses remained.
