HELP SAVE THE HISTORY OF OUR OLDER LOCAL CHURCHES

Historic Rural Churches of Georgia (hrcga.org) is a website dedicated to preserving the history of older churches in rural areas and small towns of Georgia. Please see their work at the website above to see the local churches on their site.

If you know of a mostly original church, over 100 years old, with a cemetery (early 1800s grave is a plus) please contact Richard Hillman at 706-833-8964 or hillman1978@hotmail.com.

This will help ensure the history of these local churches are preserved for generations to enjoy.
