Anderson House (Rock Hill, South Carolina)

Anderson House is the former residence of John Gary Anderson, who was president of the Anderson Motor Company in Rock Hill, South Carolina. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.〔
==History of John Gary Anderson==
John Gary Anderson (1861-1937) married Alice Louetta Holler of Rock Hill in 1884. He then entered into business with his father-in-law to found the Holler and Anderson Buggy Company. By 1905 he was the sole owner of the company, and its name had been changed to Anderson Motor Company. By 1916 the company offered its first car for sale, a luxury coupe costing $1,500. By 1924 the company had ceased production and officially closed its doors in 1925.
Anderson was a key figure in developing Rock Hill. He founded the Rock Hill Chamber of Commerce and served as its first president. He installed the area's first telephone exchange, which morphed into the Rock Hill Telephone Company. He initiated plans for paving the city's streets and sidewalks. He lobbied for a US Post Office in the city; it became a reality in the late 1890s. He also lobbied for establishment of a US District Court in the city; that effort was also ultimately successful. He was a member of the Winthrop Board of Trustees, a position he maintained until his death.
In 1911 Anderson formulated a plan to reduce the amount of acreage being planted in cotton in the South, and he traveled widely to encourage adoption of the plan. His efforts were recognized as successfully maintaining the price of cotton during the 1910s.〔The Constitution (Atlanta, GA), 1 January 1912, p. 1〕〔The New York Times, 18 January 1915, p. 14〕〔Details of Anderson's life and career are taken from his autobiography, which he completed in 1936. It was not published, but its information is referenced in the application for Historic Status for the John Gary Anderson House.〕
