How Eastover Got Its Name

…. “from its location on the east side and over the river. It was formerly called Flea Hill. There is a tradition that there was a tavern on the sandhill under which hogs and goats slept – hence the fleas.” (From John A. Oakes’ The Story of Fayetteville, The Story of Fayetteville and The Upper Cape Fear, 1950, Fayetteville, NC)

Before Flea Hill, the area may have been known as Mary’s Garden. There was a US post office in Cumberland County named Mary’s Garden located 8 miles from Fayetteville.  The Strothers Map of 1808 with data from 1860-1865 civil war era names of towns and such show Mary’s Garden in what is now known as Eastover.
