I am a descendent of John (d. 1790) and Agnes Cockrell Liles who in the mid to late 1700's owned a farm just west of where the current Ashford Rd. crosses the Little Sandy River. Just north of the river is the Woodward Baptist Church which dates from about 1810. However it was in a different location prior to that but relocated up the hill because of flooding. I do not know the exact location of the original church. Do you know when the Beaver Creek Church was founded? It sounds like it was just south of the river. -----Original Message----- From: scchest2-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:scchest2-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of gc-gateway@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, March 29, 2009 2:13 PM To: SCCHEST2-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [SCCHEST2] Land Family of Chester Co.

The country road that the new Beaver Creek Baptist Church is on is Ashford Road. Now this is in Fairfield Co. just south of Chester in the northwestern part of Fairfield Co. Ferry Road runs north and then it becomes Ashford Road. The church is on Ashford Road. The older Beaver Creek Church is very hard to find (it took us lots of prayers to find it). It is on Dave Jenkins Road which comes off the lower part of Ferry Road. Go west on Dave Jenkins Road to route 215. It is on the right side of the road just before you get to 215. It is a tiny side road with lots of pine trees on either side. You will come to a very old white house on stilts with white shutters to let the air in. There are no glass windows. It is locked. Just behind the church is the really old grave yard. Most of the stones are illegible. Good hunting, Janet Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
