Additional Details:
Historic birthplace of the Associate reformed Presbyterian 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."
