I found a reference to "old minutes of Beaver Dam Church" that included a quoted portion of these minutes from 1804. This is what I found: The following is recorded in old Minutes of Beaver Dam Church: "The Church met according to appointment, on the fourth Saturday, April, 1804, and after divine service, proceeded to business. "The Church granted a letter of dismission to Brother Inglebright, then opened the door for the reception of members. Received GEORGE RENDER, ROBERT RENDER, JOSHUA RENDER, John Maddox, Jacob Keel, Mary Shults, Nancy Bays, Polly Atherton, Sarah Leach, Elizabeth Springston and John Atherton by experience." These were duly baptized by the Pastor, Benjamin Tolbert, shortly thereafter." Are these minutes available, and does anyone have them ? Maybe at the library? Does anyone know if this church is still in operation? If we can find this "minute book", it will be a great source of information for Ohio County researchers. Charles A. Leach [email protected]
