In the era of about 1900 it was common for school to be held in churches and this is one. This is a fact, as my mother, her brothers and sisters went to school in this church about 1900-1910. The church was on the edge of her fathers property. This was just a short walk up through the field just across the stream where her father farmed to her home at the Piedmont. The stream is Toccoa River and she was baptized in this river just out in front of the large rock. She commented that she would eat her dinner sitting on the rock in the stream.
