Near this spot stood the boyhood home of Rev. Bob Jones (1884-1968), D.D., L.L.D., an internationally known evangelist and founder of Bob Jones University. The eleventh child of W. Alexander and Georgia Creel Jones, he was three months old when the family moved to Brannon Stand in 1884, and he lived there until his father's death in 1900. Four years after his conversion at age eleven, he held his first revival under a brush arbor two miles from here. The only structure remaining today from his boyhood home is the brick water well, located on Edinburgh Way just inside the Highland Oaks Golf Course entrance.
