Welcome to Silverhill, “A Good Place To Live”. The town of Silverhill was established in 1896 and was known as a Swedish community. In the 1890’s, logging companies and workers in the turpentine business came to what is now the Oscar Johnson Memorial Park to work. On payday, everyone went up the hill to get their silver. Later on, the town was given the name “Silverhill” due to that very reason.
