History

The community was named after Mars Hill (Areopagus), in Ancient Greece.[2] The community was once home to the Wright and Rice Iron Foundry. The foundry began operating in 1835 and manufactured various kinds of machinery and equipment. During the American Civil War, the 7th Illinois Volunteer Infantry Regiment camped at the site of the foundry. The foundry produced various weapons for the Confederacy during the war. It was destroyed in May 1863. In 1888, a passenger station of the Louisville & Nashville Railroad was at Mars Hill.[3]

Notable person

Hugh McVay, ninth governor of Alabama.
