Testimonial Letter
from Chuck & Norma Allred
Layton, Utah
"We are writing to thank you for the excellent
information we received during the three day Reunion held in your area earlier
this month."
And the photos sent with the letter:
Sue Whitley Estep and Alice Allred Pottmyer studying ancient documents in the North Carolina
State Archives in downtown Raleigh, NC.
Sandy Creek Baptist Church, founded 1755. (Original building in
background). Known as the "Mother of all Southern Baptist
Churches". Inside you can view the balcony where, prior to the War
Between The States, slaves were allowed to congregate during worship
services. ECAFA membe Dennis
York described the history of the church and building during our visit.
The Jesse Allred, Jr. home located near Red Cross, NC. Original log
building (in back) built in 1818. The front two-story section of the home
was built in 1893. Excellent example of the architectural style of typical
farm homes found throughout central North Carolina.
The Historical Marker at Cedar Falls, NC, tells of the service and historical
significance of Randolph County Confederates. The original mill building
is still standing, but abandoned at present.
