In1883 the church was connected withthe Synod of the Atlantic and thePresbytery of the Yadkin. In the pro-cessofgetting money tobuild achurch.members asked for a loan ofS75 from'fte Synod of Atlanta.Second Presbyterian Church wasorganized In 1867. Prior to this, Negro slaves, who at one time comprised40 percent of the congregation, occupied the galleries on each side of thesanctuary ofFirst Presbyterian Churchin Mocksville.In 1893, land was secured for thenew church. Land running parallelwith the Midland Railroadon the westand the Colored Graveyard lot, theKhool house lot and the Peter Hundleylot on the east and on the south by theMocksville and Lexington Road. Thedate was Feb. 5, 1893.The first trustees were PeterHundly, Samuel Clement, AaronEddiger, Peter KerrandT.R. Hellard.(Heilard and Hundly made their mark,as they could not write their names.)The minister was Rev. C■^nvford. Hiswife's name was Sophie. Their children were Jimmie, Will and Herbert.(Herbert was married to Alvia Cain.)Their daughters were Lillie and Carrie. After Rev. Crawford died, hiswidow married Rev. Williams. Mrs.Williams taught in the ParochialSchool next door to the church.This church was destroyed by fireon acold Sunday morning. They savedthe organ and most of the seats. Thebuilding was a total loss with no in-surance.The new church was built at thepresent site in 1910. The new brickmanse replacing the old white framemanse was built in 1964. The educational unit was added to the church in1967.In 1968, the white frame churchwas remodeled and the structure wasbricked. Improvements were made tothe interior also. Stained glass windows replaced the old ones. A ladiesparlor and a large study were added.More restoration was done in the basement of the church. In 1983, newtables were purchased for the diningarea. Windows were repaired and newdoors replaced the old ones. In 1985,the basement was given a new coat ofpaint. The work done from 1967-March 1985, was done while Rev.F.D. Johnson was pastor.Achurch andits surrounding buildings are like any other. Structures areconstantly in need of repair. Something will wear out and need to berepaired pr replaced altogether. By1985, it was time to dojust this sort ofthing. Officers and members who weredeeply concerned about the welfareofthe church, began to do what neededto be done to refurbish the church.Some members gave money. Somemembers gave money and time. Allgave out of love for and concern forthe well-being of the church.To begin with, the windows in thesanctuary were in dire need of repair.So. new windows were installed. At alater time, Venetian blinds were addedto each window.The front doors were replaced withnew heavy wooden doors that wouldclose properly. Also, a new door wasinstalled in the minister's study. Thefurniture in the pulpit was re-uphol-stered. A concrete walk was pouredfrom the front of the church to thebasement steps. Improvements weremade in the bathrooms. A new waterfountainrepiacedtheoldone. A muchneeded cloak rack was added to thechoir room. The bell tower was redone. A metal door replaced thewooden door of the basement.Before cold weather, a new furnace was in.sialled in 1988. In 1989,an air conditioner was installed.For both comfort and convenience,wall-to-wall carpeting was added tothe sanctuary. New wall cabinets replaced the old ones in the kitchen.This was done in 1993. These arcsome of the improvements made forthe church during the time that Rev.Ivan Lowery has been minister at Second United Presbyterian Church inMocksville. (On the first Sunday inMay, 1987, Rev.

A total of $75was borrowed from the Synod of Atlanta to secure landon Feb. 5, 1893 for the firstchurch. The boundaries included what is now Depot1867October, 2017Street, the graveyard lotoff US 64 and the railroadtracks.The first church, whichhad no insurance, was destroyed by fire on a coldSunday morning. Most ofthe seats and the organ weresaved. The present churchwas built on Pine Street in1910. A basement was added in 1967 as an educational unit and the white framechurch was bricked in 1968.When MSPC was approached by the DavieCounty Historical and Genealogical Society for asubmission, three membersof the Steele family (Jane,Jimmie Lou, and Ruth Lewis) completed a listing ofthe cemetery for the 1995publication of Cemeteries inDavie County.The first minister, theRev. J.H. Crawford (1840-1894), is buried in theMSPC Cemeteiy. Afterhis death, his wife Sophie,married the Rev. C.H. Williams, who also pastoredthe church. In addition tobeing a minister's wife,Mrs. Sophie Crawford Williams taught in the Parochial School next door. She islisted as Mrs. S.E. Williams(1849-1918) on her firsthusband's gravestone. TheRev. Williams (1849-1920)is also buried there.After 150 years, underthe pastorate of CLP FredTeny, Mocksville SecondPresbyterian Church members are looking back whilemoving forward.Qme County PuDii^ urn )))C4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Oct. 5,20172nd Presbyterian To Observe150th-Year HomecomingMocksville Second Presbyterian Church at 400 Pine St.will obserye its 150th-year homeconiing service at 3 p.m.Sunday, Oct. 8.

Their deaths may beremembered by the comrades who saw them die, ifthe comrades live to remember."The remembering partapplies to people in allwalks of life.There's Arlington andFlanders Field. And thenthere're large city cemeteries, church, as well, as smallfamily resting places.There're innumerablesites of African-Americanburial grounds, communities of ancestors, all overDavie County. Unlike theexpansive African-American Cemetery in the citylimits on Milling Road,which holds the remains ofthe deceased related to Shi-loh Baptist, New JerusalemApostolic and St. John African Methodist EpiscopalZion Church, Jthe Presbyterians of color are interred intown between East DepotStreet and US 64. The freedslaves didn't go far downthe hill from First Presbyterian and the Clement Plantation to establish their ownchurch with a cemetery in1867.For posterity, Jim Wallhas listed the names of 61African-Americans, priorto 1832-1867, he found inold records at First Presbyterian; there was a timewhen slaves made up 40percent of the congregation.According to Cyrette San-ford, in her beloved Joppa,(where Daniel Boone's parents are buried) .there's noway of knowing if any ofthem are there.Like the Moravians atOld Salem, church membersgather on these hallowedgrounds for Easter SunriseServices in remembrance ofthe empty tomb and the resurrection. In May, 2017, afellowship of kindred mindscelebrated at Joppa as partof the First Church 250thAnniversary.Since the Civil War, ontheir own land, headstonesof all shapes and sizes ofMocksville's freed Presbyterians have been erected;they identify individualgraves standing alone, aswell as, family plots. Thereare temporary markers andpermanent headstones ofveterans, too.A headstone that marksthe grave of the first pastor,the Rev. James H. Crawford (1840-1894), his wifeSophia Rattley Crawford(1849-1918) and an infantdaughter is there. The second pastor and Sophia'ssecond husband, the Rev.Charles Henry Williams(1849-1920), is next tothem. According to JimmieLou Tabor Steele's research.Rev. Crawford served thechurch from 1868-1893 andRev. Williams from 1907^1919.Standing alone in thecemetery is a headstone ofsomeone Magalene Gaither,our own "Historianyin-Resi-dence," had mentioned overthe years. It identifies thespouse of Rev. LM. Onque,another preacher n at Mocks-ville Second, who servedfrom 1926-1939. The,letterscarved in perpetuity readssimply: Minnie JaromeOnque, August 31, 1870 -January 1,1939, at rest.According to the Mac-miilan Encyclopedia ofDeath and Dying, the funer-sii traditions that survivedthe middle passage show "atrest" is more than a simplestatement. Customs, in thenew land as in Afirica, included appeasing the spirits of the deceased to keepthese spirits from wandering. Even after the conversion to Christianity, the newtransplants continued toplace personal items on thegraves of the dead for appeasement. Marvin AndrewMcMickle notes the slaveowners tended not to intrudewith these rituals. The belief in life after death madea "proper", burial of utmostimportance since one's ancestors' resting in peace wasbelieved to be a continuation of existence and protection of the family.Rituals of niouming became rituals of celebration.The following is a quotefrom Barbara Kingsolver'sPoisonwood Bible: "To liveis to be marked. To live is tochange; to acquire a story,and that is the only celebration we mortals reallyknow."Following Jayber Crow'sassertion, let's keep ourloved ones from disappearing by rememberingthem. We may even wantto have a "When the SaintsGo Marching In" moment,to appease some spirits, toerect some headstones andprotect some families forgenerations to come.
