OLD BRICK CHURCH (EBENEZER)
FAIRFIELD COUNTY, S. C.
Historic birthplace of the Associate Reformed Pres-
byterian Church. Built by its own congregation in
1788 from hand moulded bricks and local timber.
Union Cavalry crossed nearby Little River in Feb.
1865 by using the flooring of the church. A written
apology, still legible on the woodwork, reads; "To
the citizens of this county - please excuse us for
defacing your house of worship. It was absolutely
necessary to effect a crossing over the creek. Signed,
A Yankee."
