Inscription.
Hand dug wells tapped into the natural springs surrounding the Frisco-Lebanon area were the life-source for early settlers, ensuring a year round water supply. Travelers and cattle drovers along the Preston Road often stopped at a place called Twin Wells, located near Frisco. The wells were not only a gathering place to camp and cook, providing rest for weary travelers, but also served as social centers, drawing in surrounding neighbors for singing games and laughter, and the all-important exchange of news, information and stories.
