I recently learned the names of the charter members of the Henderson Regular Baptist Church which was located at Henderson's Grove, which was the first church of any faith in Knox County, org. in August 1830, and Elder Jacob Gum was one of the charter members named. I've been meaning to send this information to the list anyway, as the kind person who asked for information on the church for the Rio website, should update that info. The information I have came from a Mercer county history, which gave the information on the Knox county church because some of the members lived in Mercer County. I'm at home now, but will send it tomorrow if I don't forget (which could easily happen due to my hectic schedule right now).
