Can someone tell me where I could find more info on this? Thank you Alma Cherokee Church - Holston Baptist Association (State 81 4.5 miles south of Jonesborough) This Baptist church was organized the first Saturday in September, 1783. Here, the fourth Saturday in October, 1786, Holston Association was organized with Tidence Lane moderator and Wm. Murphy clerk. Seven churches were represented. This was the first Baptist Association in Tennessee.
