Sign text:
1 1/2 mile south, an early Methodist society in Tennessee was organized in 1790. The family of Henry Earnest, who settled here in 1779, comprised four-fifths of the membership. The annual convention of the Western Conference was held here in 1795. Stone Dam Campground was nearby.

Street address for the church is 1695 Earnest Rd, but that is further south in the country.

A very long article about founder Henry Earnest can be found (here).
