SCT was one of many textile mills that dominated the economy and built their own communities of employees around them.
At the turn of the 20th century the textile industry was expanding southward to provide increased local manufacturing for Southern cotton. With the introduction of electricity, the old water-powered mills of New England were becoming obsolete, and the railroads served growing transportation needs.
In February, 2015, the remaining buildings of the Standard-Coosa-Thatcher Mills were added to National Register of Historic Places.
