Hi, Would you please post the information on the Cherry Comm. I am also interested. Thanks, Carol

I have a copy of the work Mike Hill did on Amos Stone. My time is short now, but the church was organized in 1858 as Stone's Chapel Presbyterian Church.. He donated prior to 1862 4 acres for land for a cemetery, not knowing he would be the first buried there. IN 1886, Moses S Grand donated more land north of the cemetery to the church to be used for a school.. The school was simply named Cherry after the community which had been named for a early settler, G.P. Cherry. Stone died Nov 14, 1862 at 49 hears of age. Stone came to minister to Clarksville in 1857, soon went to San Antonio to start a mission, after one year returned to Clarksville in 1861 and ministered to the Stone's Chapel Church until his death in 1862. This tell us about the school & church, but not sure about when the "Cherry" community was started. Sorry, that all I have time for now.
