Long Local Church History at Flat Brook with Landmark Log House
The article traces the Flat Brook Baptist Church history from its 1882 organization near a rock outcrop called First Rock, through land deeds, a log house built by 1805, and later joint use with Presbyterians after 1856. It notes pastors from John Vandiver in 1833 to 1888, revivals, and evolving denominational relations in a rural community near Andernonesty on Leatherdeal road.
1889 1890 church milestones and shared land deed
Elder W H Jing was elected pastor for a second term and served one year. In 1889 Elder T H Garrett became pastor and a watchman was placed on the towers. The church grew to about 100 members and planned a house of worship. Because land was co owned by two denominations, a pastor Bro S O Hall deeded one acre for a new church, which was completed in 1890 valued around 1000 dollars. The eight acre land and house remain jointly owned and four trustees are Samuel W Webb Griad Tate J O Haynie S P Tate.
