Here is a note about the White Lick Meeting in Newberry...Thanks to Chris Prince for the info! ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Prince To: Jean Epting Blackmon Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2008 4:19 PM Subject: Quakers Jean, Carl sent me the notes about the Rocky Springs meeting the other day. This got me interested so I started looking. Rocky Springs Meeting later became Rocky Springs Baptist Church. The Baptist church was formed about 1838 and dissolved in 1859. It's first pastor was Rev. Thomas Frean. I also found there was another meeting named White Lick. O'Neall said this was located "on land where Robert Burton now lives." This was in 1859. If you look in the 1850 census book (2nd ed.), Robert is on p. 388. In the 1860 book he is on p. 33. In the 1860 he is just a few houses from Judge O'Neall. With your land work you may could figure where this is. I couldn't find another mention of White Lick in Brent's deed abstracts. Can you forward the information of this 3rd meeting to Judith Russell? A friend of mine sent me the e-mail from the Quaker list about what you and Carl had told them. I didn't have her e-mail though.

Hello. Just got the latest update and saw that Rocky Springs Meeting turned into Rocky Springs Baptist Church and that Rev. Thomas Frean was the first pastor. Is this the Thomas Frean (1793-1851) that was married to Hannah Elmore (1795-1859)?? One of Thomas and Hannah's sons was named "John Belton O'Neill Frean", born and died as an infant in 1831 in Newberry County. Thomas Frean is buried in Bush River Quaker Cemetery, Newberry County and was a native of Tipperary, Ireland. His wife Hannah Elmore was a child of Matthias Elmore (1755-1835) and Rebecca Kelly. I am related to this family through Matthias' first wife, Elizabeth Appleton. Are there minutes from the Rocky Springs Baptist Church that survive? How can I locate them?
