History

A post office called Fristoe was established in 1895, and remained in operation until 1978.[3] The community was named for Judge Markham Fristoe, an early member of the county court.[4]

The Rodgers Shelter Archeological Site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969.[5]
