As usual, an extensive web search was done for both this church and former one-room school, but the only reference found was in the
1940-41 Stone County School Directory when you click on
Pages 16 & 17. The topographic maps still show this school building where it stands. The only way that it could be determined that the school was later used as a church is from the sign along the road that has been allowed to fall down. It
appears that the building is still being used for something, since:
- It has a nicely painted propane tank, which would have been removed if the building was no longer used.
- It has an electric meter on the utility pole, which also would have been removed.
- It is kept in good condition and has an air conditioner in one window.
- There is a sign indicating that voting was, at one time, done here, probably not too long ago. (Perhaps recently.)
