History
The first settlers arrived in the 1840s. A post office was opened three miles west of the present townsite in 1853 and its first postmaster, W.O. Spencer, suggested for the place the name Liberty Hill. Subsequently, the town moved eastward twice. In 1871, a building of hand-cut limestone was erected by S.P. Stubblefield at the corner of Main and Myrtle. He operated the property as a general store until 1881. This structure, today known as the Stubblefield Visitors Center, is the oldest still occupied in Liberty Hill.
