The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗Aynor was settled as the Eyknor's Farm in the mid-19th century under Jacob Eyknor. After a railway terminus was added along the railroad from Conway, the town was incorporated in 1913. It elected a mayor and town wardens (now town council members). Gabriel Edwards (1849–1938) was elected the first mayor in 1913 and again in 1923 for a non-consecutive second term. The town developed as a center for production of turpentine, tobacco, and cotton as commodity crops.

Nothing in Aynor is on the National Register yet
That’s true of most small towns. It doesn’t mean Aynor has no history, only that no one has written up a nomination. The closest listed place is Galivants Ferry Historic District in Aynor, 4.1 miles away.
