During the American Civil War, Redland experienced political tensions. With a prominent farmer, landholder, community leader, and politician; Hazel B. Cashell being arrested for treason. [6] By 1879, Redland was well settled with a population of about 50. The community now had a church, Emory Grove Methodist Episcopal Church, located one mile north of town, a public school, several different merchants, blacksmiths, and physicians. The soil was productive and easily improvable; due to this the local economy was centered around farming. [6]

By 1941, Redland was still classified as a village and its population had grown to 91 residents. [7]
