Speaking with relatives about family history, I am often told to keep this piece of information between you, me and the gate post. Respecting sensibilities, I will share my family stories entwine with historical events from Copiah, Jefferson and Lincoln Counties, Mississippi, from gate post to gate post.

Church Split St John Missionary Baptist Church
I wish I knew what this church split was about. Did they disagree about doctrine, pastoral leadership, worship style, money, moral scandal, etc.?
The churches are located in the same rural community, less than a city block separates the two churches. Demyers kin are members of the church and are buried in the churches shared cemetery.
No body remembers?
ReplyDeleteThe couple I talked with didn't know the reason for the split.
