History
The town of Harrellsville was founded in the 1820s by the Harrell families. A post office was established in 1827, and Abner Harrell became the postmaster in 1833. Originally known as Bethel, the town was changed to Harrellsville in the 1860s out of respect for Abner Harrell. Originally, Abner Harrell’s house, one of the largest buildings in the town, remained standing until circa 2000, when the land it stood on was purchased and the house torn down.
The Harrellsville Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.
