			<h2>The Story</h2>		
		<p>Early settler Joshua Lyles, donated 6 acres of ground to the Old Airline Railroad to establish a rail station.  In 1886, the settlement was officially named Lyles Station in honor of Joshua Lyles. The town flourished during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, developing into a self-sustaining community of approximately 800 residents. Help us to preserve the history and programs we offer. Your time and donations are always appreciated.</p>
