Brush Creek
Primitive Baptist
I recieved through inter-library loan the
microfilm from the TN State Archives of the Brush Creek Primitive
Baptist Church in Smith County, TN. It is VERY difficult to read,
however, there is a list from the early to middle 1800s of members and
what happened to them.
This page created for the Smith Co Website.
