This church was built in 1850 by Mr Lilly's ggg grandfather on his mothers side, his ggg grandfather on his daddy's side. Along with many others that were ancestors. They settled this area and there was no church. All the logs were sawed at Keisler sawmill, which belonged to his ggg grandfather. The pews were all logs that were cut and sawed by his ggg grandfather too.
When your sittin inside and you look up at the ceiling you can see hand prints on all the boards. It's a really neat feelin you get when lookin up there and knowing that all those handprints were made when the church was built.
Very well maintained. Never has had any major remodeling done. It had electricity put in sometime in the 60s, along with a/c and heat that was put in underneath. It's had paint jobs over the years and new shingles put on the roof. Other than that, it's exactly like it was in 1850.
Here's a couple more pictures.
Every 3rd Sunday in August since the church was built they've had what they call, "Homecomin" Dinner on the grounds after church and tons of decendants of the original Church members come and bring a covered dish. It's set up on tables outside and you can just walk and graze all afternoon.
