Thanks
The two oldest church buildings in the county are Smyrna Methodist ( circa 1857 -located on hwy 36 between Searcy and Center Hill) and First Methodist in Searcy (sanctuary built in 1871-2 - located at Main and Market in Searcy) The oldest school building is the 1885 Little Red School - located at the White County fairgrounds - the building will be moved to a new location this summer. The oldest bridge is located at the south end of Judsonia and crosses the Little Red River - called the Judsonia bridge. It was built around WW I. We also have the oldest functioning courthouse in the state (1871-2) located on the court square in Searcy. All are on the National Register, except for the Little Red Schoolhouse (named for the community it was moved from, not it's color which is white) ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 5:48 PM Subject: [ARWHITE] Old Churches, Schools & Bridges > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/wV.2ADI/913 > > Message Board Post: > > Could anyone tell me the names and general location of any old churches, schools, and bridges that still exist in White County? > Thanks > > > ==== ARWHITE Mailing List ==== > Checkout the other lists being watched over by your List Mom; > http://mailing_lists.homestead.com/lists.html > To learn more about my world visit http://dwp.bigplanet.com/kburnett > Arkansas Cemeteries Volunteer Website http://www.rootsweb.com/~arcemete/arcem.htm > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 > >
