Minute Book 1 Typescript, 1803-1841
Scope and Contents
Old Cane Spring Baptist Church Records include four volumes of church records covering the years 1803 to 1992. The volume covering the years 1873 - 1896 is missing. The records include membership lists, monthly minutes and news clippings. The membership lists indicate that a member was deceased, dismissed or excluded and when and how they were accepted into the church. The minutes include changes in pastor, repairs to the building and conflicts between members and the church. The pulpit Bible has been annotated with dates that certain passages were used in the sermon. The records give insight into religious life in the 19th and 20th centuries and show the changes in the church during that time period.
