About two miles north is the site of this pioneer Presbyterian church founded in 1736. First pastor was Richard Sankey. In the graveyard are buried many first settlers and veterans of frontier wars and the American Revolution.
Alas, I found no info about this church or it's first Pastor. Well I did find out some things, but I'm not sure they are the same people so I'll say nothing! We should have looked for the church and didn't! How sad!
TO LOG YOUR FIND TAKE A PICTURE OF YOU AND THE SIGN, OR EVEN BETTER IF YOU KNOW WHERE THE CHURCH IS TAKE A PICTURE OF THE CHURCH AND CEMETERY!
