    1. Re: [TNCAMPBE] Macedonia Baptist Church
    2. Jenn, If the church burned before 1892 then her grandpa William F.Stansberry Sr. might have helped. He passed away in 1892. I am certain that her Great Grandpa John Sonny Reed did not help. He passed in 1883. I know that my nanny told me that her dad James Franklin Reed and her Grandpa Thomas Gaylor helped to rebuild the church. She also mentioned Isaac Sharp her cousin's husband helped. Esther's grandpa Sharp might have helped also. I am not certain as nanny never mentioned him. If I have my wires straight... Esther was my nanny's second cousin. They shared the same great grandparents John Sonny Reed and Mary Elizabeth Witt. Have you ever seen any documentation on who actually owned the land that Macedonia Church was built on? I recall hearing that the land was either donated by the Harmon or Gaylor family. That land was either donated for the church or cemetery. I can not remember which. Debbie **************Create a Home Theater Like the Pros. Watch the video on AOL Home.
