I have carefully examined the microfilm for the Cherokee Baptist Church minutes. Also, I have a copy of the 1938 transcript of the church covenant and pages of names who joined the church. See: http://www.danielhaston.com/places/churches/bigpigeon/records-compared.htm There seems to be some discrepancies between the two of them. For example, I don't see the complete church covenant in the microfilm, but it is in the 1938 transcripts. Some of the earliest signatures do not "appear" to be in the microfilm. Can someone please help me with this? I am looking for the Heaston family signatures. I have been told that Abraham and Magdalene Heaston were signers of the church covenant when the church began, but have not been able to any Heaston names prior to about 1790.
