    2. Suzanne Coats
    3. One Methodist Church in Selma in 1873 was East Selma Methodist Church and J. W. Glenn was the pastor. And it is written in the book, SELMA, HER INSTITUTIONS AND HER MEN by Hardy in 1879, ". . . and now there are over one hundred members, with a Sabbath School well attended by 150 children, and really no church in the city is doing more real good than the East Selma Methodist Church. the building is capable of seating 400 people and is brillantly lighted with gas during evening services." There was a Selma Methodist Episcopal church pastored by M. S. Andrews from 1872 to1875. Maybe you can use this information to trace the church you are trying to find. I am sorry but I don't know anything about the Methodist churches in Selma presently. Sincerely, Suzanne Shuttleworth Coats Forest, Ms.
