So let us lo<dc first te ^ the Mother Church, OLIVE BRANCH METHODIST CHURCH, Davie Circuit, Salisbuxy, North ^ Cardiaa, Distriot. Ia 1804 a small group of dercut men and vcmen met ia an old log sohodL house about one and one-half miles south of the present Famiagtoa village, and exgaaised theaiselves into a group of the Methodist faith, and decided to purohase a small tract of land - about one acre - that lay across the road from the log school house* Tiro years later a land deed was given to John McMahaa, hilsoa ^ ;x Rissum, Eberaeaser Jones, Sasaiel Austia and Isaac Ellis, Trustees of the dive ^ Branch Cfauroh, ty Robert Fields and his wife, Naaqy, for this particular tract of 11. land. A house of worship was erected there by the meid)ers. This building saw many 1 devout souls develop and grow beautiful under the influence of the ilmigfaty's power. And as the years passed and the final summons came it saw them with assurance O pass on te the Eternal City. It stood as a silent witness as member after member found jt the last resting place in the gravoyard nearby. •9 ^ During these seventy yearsc: of service dive Branch felt the gradual growth of the little village of Farraington, as the general store, tobacco factory, saw mill, grist mill and blacksmith shops became a trading center for tha surrounding country side. The old church was no longer in the center of the growing population 5 as it had been. ^ 4 kfe find in B. P« Luimts report as trustee for dive Branch Church, at a church conference held October 29, 1881 the following: ■*The church is in good condition but is an old building end the lot is small and the gravnynrd is nearly filled, and wish to extend the space for burial necessity, and propose to use more of the lot for this purpose, and we contemplate a new church at Farmington, and use the dive Branch church only for burial services*** o "Z, So the old church with a saddened heart that it's day of actiire service was 43 nearly over bad the privilege of only a few more services within its walls* The ^ S gregular preaching hexvioe was held Sunday morning February 5, 1882, followed ^ % i-1 imnediately by a church conference, at which time Albert V* EUis, church secretary, g read to the 72 members present the assessments for the year* The last service of any kind to be held in the church was the funeral of a beloved member and faithful superintendent and Bible Teacher, J^s Mhthaniel Brock, June 17, 1886* So,as a church building, old dive Branch Church ^ssed into history, but the memory and the far reaching influence of < those many devout men and women, their high ideals of Christian living, and the fine examples of Christlike service have been handed down to us, a precious heritagei it is ours to carry on* At a quarterly oonfereace for the Bavie Circuit held May 7th, 1881, a building oQOfflittee for the building of a church at Farmington was appointed* The oomoittee was comprised of B* Frank Lunn, Richard £• JBrock, and Frank M« Johnson* All summer, fall and winter, the work went forward under the supervision of the committee and the building contractor, J« M« Fenningtoa, with the faithful aid of the men and women of the church, until it stood oon$leted and furnished, with all debts paid, ready for the dedication, which was held the fifth Sunday in April, 1882* There are people here today who well remember that fifth Sunday in April, 1882, when W* S* Black, Presiding BLder of the Salisbury District North Carolina Conference, assisted by the Pastor in charge, D* L* Ramhardt, dedicated the building to be **used for the Glory of God and the good of mankind*" •-2— i|^ Th0 tvo aores of land in thia lovely olzurch grounds and the parsonage lot of one acre were given to the Tnistees of the Churchy and also the oemetexy of. six aores^ more or less, were given as a CaaBnmity Burial Ground by the late Geoxge filbsley Johnson. The deeds for these are recorded in the office of the Begister of Deeds, Hocksville, North Carolina, Davie Coun^ Courthouse. The church lot deed is recorded in Book 7, Page 63. The parsonage lot deed is recorded in Bhok 12, Page 569. The first Trustees for the church were A. V. DUis, B. Frank Lunn, Stmeon A. Jhrvis, Frank M. Johnson and Richard £. Brock. The present trustees (1932) are Frank H. Bahnson, John Frank Johnson and VUl £. Keimen. ^ CO g Perhaps you would like to know the oost of the Farmiugton Church.

For the past few years under the leadership of Miss ELisabeth Jrmes and Charlie Bahnson muoh good and creditable work has been done, being recognised in the County and District League Unions* The third organised group was the Voman^s MLssionary Booieiy which was organised ^ 1925, at the home of Mrs* Tom Redmon, with thirteen charter meiBbers* Mrs* -5-> £9 o -J 2: m Zj ? >Q- (/) ^ Mrs# dyde MoKinBgrj the pastor's idfe^ was elected the first presidestj Mrs# F# M# Bahasoa^ Tlce presideotj Mrs. T.

Out of that group only one charter member issliving today, Mrs. Qama iiBrook Brown, last Oeceober, 1931, Mrs. Brown was elected President fhieritus of the Ladies Aid Society.

Even back in ^ 1882, when all the other churches of the Farmington Charge dosed during the winter months to open the fdlewi ng April, Farmington reiaained open# On Ifcy, 19, 1883 there were over one hundred mombers on the Sunday Schod rdl with an average atten dance of sixty, last Sunday we had 116 en roll with 77 in attendance. I* interesting to know that during these fifty years there has been only ten ^ Superintendents of the Sunday Schod# They are F, M# Johnson, S. A. Jhrvis, Moses B. .Brook, Leon Cash, Albert W. ELlis, Frank H. Bahnsen, wn A. Ihylor, Thcmas ^ H# Redmon, T. liorbert Nichdson and John Frank Johnson. The first Lay Leader was I' A. V. Ellis, who was appointed in 1910.

Methodist Gnurch on May 30> 1931» closed the first fifty years of the life of the Farraington Methodist Church after a foreground history of seventy-eight years in the activities of the Olive Branch Methodist Church. This made a continuity in the community of 128 years being carried on by the descendants of those earliest settlers and others who from time to time moved into the large community. Senator Will Brock of Chattanooga, Tennessee, the guest speaker for the $Oth anniversary, was a descendant of Richard Brock, a son of Enoch Nathaniel Brock, one of these early settlers. He brought^ a message of encouragement and inspiration of faith in the future ^ of the church and community. He was presented a token of iriend- ^ ship from the members of the Church. It was a smoking stand ^ made by Ralph James from lumber taken from the old home of Senator Brock and his parents. The Ladies Aid Society sponsored ' ^ this gift. ^ Rev. Mo G. Erwin, in his third year as pastor of the Parmington charge, led the Church as it began its second fifty ^ years in worship of Ck)d and its service to mankind. Mr. Erwin > was followed in the Fall of 1934 by Rev. H. C. Freeman who ^ remained for four years. ^ In December 1934, ih was decided by the Church under 'I the leadership of the Ladies Aid Society, to remove from the church CX3 O z i I - the cupola "vdiick looked badly and needed other repairs* ^ W* P.

It tells the date of building of the church in ISBl* -2- LADIES AID SOCIETY The many deeds accomplished by the Ladies Aid Society hr for the parsonage, church and community if recorded would well fill a book. They are deeds involving time, labor, food, clothing, furnishings for home and church, money for insurance and many other needed supplies. Let us pause and look into the history of ^ this Woman's organization that has been of so much value to the 1 BQ o Farmington Charge and Community. ^ ^ 8It was organized as the Ladies Parsonage Aid Society § ^ CL win IS92, with Mrs. L. E. Stacy, the pastor's wife, as its first o ^ president. Some of the charter members were I4rs. Stacy, Mrs. g ^ Emma Brock Brown and lirs. Jane Johnson Bahnson. On December 22, ® 1963, Pirs. Brown, the last of the charter members, at the age of 101 years and ten months, passed on to her reward. Let us recount some of the many things this growing group of women did through the time of its 47 years of helpful activities. There v/as the time when the pastor's old hat, even though his best, looked worn and soiled from too many summers of heat, sweat, and dust and too many winters of rain and snow, and I money for a new one was not in the family budget, that the good ladies brought this condition to their monthly meeting. True £ their form for service wherever the need was found, the pastor ^ a hat and a new shirt the following Sunday as he proudly ^ rode away in his buggy to fill his preaching appoint^^onts at two ^ of his six churches on the charge. ^^®ceipts show that in 1936 the Ladies Aid paid the insurance parsonage and. the church. They bought hymn books a pulpit light for the church. They bought for the parsonage curtains, bed linens, rugs, dishes, table silver, I -3- cJ carpets, lamps, bowl and pitcher sets, an iron wash pot for laundering, and chairs, kitchen utensils and other things too numerous to mention, TJJey always willingly helped the Stewards in "paying out" the church budget for the year, as the annual Qd CQ c Western North Carolina Conference drew near its convening, and the ri 2 preacher and delegates were almost ready to leave to attend the m ^ conference. There were other times - once when a negro family*s . g Q 9 house burned to the ground, and they saved little of their uj I earthly possessions, but through the leadership of the Ladies Aid Q Society they soon had food, clothing, household goods enough to start over again in a neighbor's rent house. There was the time when the first president, Mrs. Stacy, became ill and died soon after giving birth to a little baby girl, Kosa. One of the members, Mrs. Molly Perry Brock, after talking it over with her husband, Joseph C. Brock and Mr. Stacy, the father of Rosa, offered to take ^d care for the baby as her own. The Brocks had lost their own baby the same week that Rosa had lost her mother. Rosa lived with them until her family reclaimed her when she was old enough to attend school. In 1924, at the cost of a little over :j600.00 the Ladies Aid with the help of the men for labor and management, paid fo:p three rooms built on the West end of the Church. These were used by classes of the Sunday School. The money to do all these things and many more that I have not mentioned was earned in varied ways. First, there were dues of five cents per member per month; lawn parties on the church lawn with real home-made ice cream, lemonade, cakes and pies. All ingredients %nd labor were donated by the members* -4- 36 On Saturday afternoons during the summer and early fall a hand ,g .m Q turned ice cream freezer or two filled with rich delicious home ^ ' D Ijmade ice cream mixtures were made and sold by the "dipper full" § ^ Q. S to whomsoever came by« The members took turns making and d S selling the ice cream, clearing of §5.00 or a little more was a ^ good reward for an afternoon's work. The annual Bazaar in the Fall usually October or November, provided the main source of income during the last half or more of the life of the Ladies Aid; and also in the V/.S.C.S. (Women's Society of Christian Service) through the year 1962. The Bazaar and chicken pie supper became so big and the laborers older and less able to undertake the task of preparation and serving of food that the ladies voted to disband the bazaar and supper and work in other ways to raise money to take care of their needs. In the bazaar one could find the handiwork of the members such as lace,tatting, crocheting, embroidery, doilies, rugs, chair sets, aprons, hand painted pictures, vases, bottles, pillow cases, q^uilts, etc. There was the market booth of home grown ^ vegetables from the gardens and farms. There were cakes, jellies, I jams, preserves, strings of red hot peppers, sage for the sausage, long handle gourds - you can name, it and most likely it could have r been found somewhere on the long row of tables in the school K' building where the bazaars were held. ,1^ The bazaar supper was usually homemade chicken pie with g vegetables and sweets and coffee, all being donated and prepared ^ by the women of the church. It pleased and satisfied customers from near and far. It was hard work but rewarding. It did more • than bring in money - it developed an appreciation of the worth of J fellow workers in those who so generously gave of their means and ... o >6 d J ■u-? of themselves. The Ladies Aid Society was an institution of g labor, love and helpfulness. □ z GiiURGH Weddings g ^ 8 g > Tnere have been fifteen weddings solemnized within the R Sacred walls of the church from its dedicstion in 1332 to the writing of this account in January 1966. Tlie first one was Henrietta Alverta Coley to Moses B. Brock, ferch 2, ISS^. The second was Dora Clarke to Edward B, Kearns, date unavailable. The third Molly Sv;aim t> Britton Brock, date unknown. The fourth was Sallie Llay Murcherson to V/illiam A. Taylor, May 4, 1S9S. The fifth was Sallie Minn Ellis to Thomas Herbrrt Nicholson, June 3, 1913• The sixth was Lena May Johnson to James G« Galloway, June 13, 1913. The seventh was Nancy Walker to Thomas J. Swing, in the 1920s. Tlie eighth was Mary Ann Johnson to Thomas Winkler July 3, 1947. The ninth was Sallie Ruth Rich to Willis Eugene James, July 9, 1947. The tenth vrcdding was Margaret Miller Montgomery and James Thurman Freeze on June 16, 1950. The eleventh was Eleanor Montgomery and John Hayes Eddleman, December 1951* The twelfth was Mary Elizabeth Seats to Troy Robertson, i'lai ch 12, 1952. The thirteenth was Garol Spillman and Jimmy ilutchins, January 30, I96O. The fourteenth v;as Hilda Jean Spillman and George Gouch, August 31, 1962. The fifteenth was Anita Spillman Mason and H« Ray Harding, October 20, 1962. In each v/edding the church lent itself with adaptable response to the decorations of greenery, flov/ers and candles. MINISTERS 193 0-1966 During the years 1930 through 1950 the following ministers with tiieir families have served the Farraington charge comprised of these churches: Farmington, Wesley Chapel, Mount Olive, Iluntsville, Hethleham and Smith Grove: -6- 5-3 •Vj U- o OJ; O 193 0-193-V I-u Erwin 1934-193^ H.

Before any Sunday School rooms were built to the church the entire church membership was divided into classes according to age. They gathered ih the Sanctuary in assigned places for the class study. In 1924 the three rooms on the West side of the 2 Church were built. Then in 1950 North of these three rooms on the r- same floor level four more rooms were built and a fellowship hall and kitchen were add^d underneath in the basement. These rooms ^ took care of all biit the older men*s class who remained in the ; Sanctuary and the M. Y. F. (Methodist-Youth Fellowship) group - Who meet in the Fellowship Hall in the basement. I-'—As I think back, how much better it is for teaching and learning for each class to have its own room. I well remember how difficult teaching was with the clashing of the teaching voices and the mumbling of answering pupils filling the Sanctuary air. There are many people, men and women who through the years have shared the responsibilities of teaching and training -B- 3H <i >- cc CQ O o tjie minds of both young and old. I shall name some of them; A. V/. Ellis, Mrs. A. W. Ellis, Miss Emma Johnson, ^^rs. Charles A. Hartman, Moses B. Brock, Mrs. Richard C. Brown, Frank H. Bahnson, Mrs. Frank H. Bahnson, Mrs.Minnie Bowden Allen, Mrs. Q ol Milton Ward, Will A. Taylor, Miss Margie Hartman, Mrs. Mable § ^ 0- 2 Ellis Redmon, George A.

Nannie .JSue Seats Harpe, Mrs. Anita S. Harding, Mrs. Grady H. Smith, Mrs. George Tucgdr, Miss Ann Harding, Rufus Leo Brock, T^rs. Burr Coley Brock, Sr. There ate perhaps others whose record of service I do not find but who have served as teacher or assistant some time throughout the years. J5ay God bless each and every service of all of these people who have given of themselves in this manner. There are many others who have helped the Pastors and Superintendents, Stewards and Trustees carry on the work of the church. From tjie youngest to the oldest they have given willingly, graciously and faithfully of themselves by attending, by singing, by praying, by playing the organ and piano, violin, trumpet, by producing special programs for special occasions such as Cgristmas; by janitoring, by giving of their means and personality, to the development of the whole church. Without £ these the church would have been deprived of much helpful vP t -9- ! Christian development. The Sunday ^chool or Church School is now, in 1966, divided into graded groups beginning with the Cradle Roll, 99 oKindergarten, Primary Juniors, Intermediates, M.Y.F. Group, ^ Younger lurried V/omen*s Class, Older Women*s Class and the § ^ Q- S men*s class. In ISS3 the enrollment was ICQ members with d o 80 average attendance of 60. Now in 1966 we have an enrollment ^ §of 130 with average attendance of 73^ per Sunday. Through the years the Sunday School has been the very life blood of the Church. It has been a learning ground for Christian living; a place for Bibl.e study, a place for Christian growth for 3^11 who came and participated in the opportunities for service. CHURCH SCHOOL SECRETARIES km TREASURERS The Church School Secretaries and Church Treasurers have helped to keep records of finances, Sunday School attendance, types of weather and some other information during the years. I find in these records that Lonnie J. Home feegan in 1900 and served as Secretary-Treasurer until he resigned in 1940, when W. A. Taylor was elected and served until L. F. Brock was elected in I943• He served through the conference years 1945*"1946, when Charles Burton Seats was elected and sisrved until his sudden death in 1962. His son-in-law, Joe Carr Harpe and daughter, l^s. Nannie Sue Harpe, served the remainder of the year. In 1963 John Henry Caudle was elected and is nov/ serving in the years 1965-1966. LAY LEADERS In the Quarterly Conference records in 1910 I find that Albert V/. Ellis was the first appointed lay leader for the Farmington Charge. Others are Frank H. Bahnson appointed in 1927, John Frank Johnson served several years. Burr C. Brock, Sr. -10- 2 -n v;> ui Q was appointed November 12, 1936, and served until he suffered a severe stroke August 19, 1961* H« Ray Harding was appointed in I960; John Charles Hartman was elected February 15, 1966, at a quarterly conference presided over by District Superintendent Dr. Herman Nicholson. § ^ COMMUNITY EASTER UNSRISE SERVICES o ^ In the early Spring of 1963, Rev. Bennie B. Bearden, pastor 2 S of the l^armington Methodist Church and Rev. Marvin Gold, pastor 8 9 of the Farmington Baptist Church in friendly cooperation talked over the need for a Community Easter observance. The meeting resulted with the idea and plans for the two churches to hold a joint Easter observance, each alternating between the two churches. Consequently, on Easter Sunday morning, April 14, I963, at six o*clock the first Farmington Community Easter sunrise observance was held in the Methodist Church with the sanctuary filled with both young and old joining in worshipful spirit of the occasion. The two pastors brought helpful thought provoking messages of the triumphant resurrection of Jesus Christ. The combined choirs of the two churches under the leadership of the two choir directors, Mrs. Nell Hartman Lashley and 1/lrs. Sue (Marvin) Gold, accompanied on the organ by the organist. Miss Helen Harding, sang inspiring Easter Hymns. I-hrs. Graham Weathers, Jr., sang a solo accompanied by I'iiss Diana Groce on the piano. While colored slides, depicting the life of Jesus, and the crucifixion and resurrection, were projected on the West wall of the church. Rev. Gold read the accompanying script. The meeting closed with everyone joining in a song followed by a dismissal -11- z prayer by Rev. Bearden. S After the service the inspired people gathered in the ° § if'ellowship Hall where the women of the Woman's Society of Christian Service served hot coffee and donuts during a half ^ 1 hour of Christian fellowship. " i U1 The second Community Easter Sunrise Service was held in th^ Baptist Church, Sunday March 29, 1964, with Rev. Bearden and Rev. Gold in leadership. The Chiirch Sanctuary was filled with worshipers. The Community Choir under the direction of Reeves Gardner, a Moravian, and Mrs. Charlotte Seats Smith, pianist, also a Moravian, both of Macedonia Church, sang three Easter songs - "In the Hour of Trial", "Christ Aros'e", and "Up from the Grave He Arose". Both pastors brought inspiring messages in words of scripture and prayer. People returned to their respective homes saying "It was rewarding, and good to have come together to honor and worship our Heavenly Father on this Easter day I' On April 18, 1965, at six o*clock A. M. with clear sunny skies bright above the happy voices of the chirping birds, and the quick stepping of the gathering of boys and girls, men and women, the third Community Easter Sunrise Service was held in the Methodist Church# The pastors were Rev# Bennie Bearden and Hev. Marvin Gold. They again brought prayers of praise and thanksgiving for Christ*s resurrection and his plan of salvation for all people. Hev. Bearden brought the sermon to the well filled sanctuary. Mrs. G. B. Weathers, Jr., sang a solo. The combined choirs under the direction of Mrs. Rufus -12- 32 L. Brock sang three songs. Miss Helen Harding presided at the ^ organ. After the worship service a thirty minute fellowship peripd v/as enjoyed by all in the Fellowship Hall where coffee and donuts were served by the W.S.C.S. The consensus of thinking of those who have attended these combined Easter observances of the Baptist and Methodist churche^ is that they have added much to the spiritual life of each ^ o member and to each church as a body, and the community as a whol§ ^ CQ _J CHURCH I€JSIC £ I d ""Make a joyful noise unto the .Lord, ^ % All ye lands. , ^ Come before his presence with ^ Singing". We have always had singing and a musical instrument in our church. There was the walnut finished church organ bought vhen the church was built in ISSI. Th^n some years later it was traded in on an Epirorth Tone Organ in oak finish. In 1922 Sunday School Class No. 4, composed of active young men and v/omen, worked together to raise the money to buy a new piano for ^ the church. So in 1922 we bought a Laffargue piano from the 5 Bowen Piano Company in V/inston-Salera, for the sum of §2^5-00. Now in 1965, the old oak finished organ is in the fellowship hall in the basement of the Sunday School addition; the Laffargue ^ piano is being used in the i*ooms for the children in the Primary ^ Department. In the sanctuary there is a Hammond Electric Organ ^ bought in 1961 for 01326.GO from Jesse G. Bowen Music Company in o V/inston-Salem. Money v/as raised to finance the buying of this addition to our music through donations from individuals, W.S.C.S. o -13- 33 CD O _J 2 Lil o I iii > and memorials, and by the continued efforts of Mrs. 0. fi. Allen and l^rs. Hell Hartman Lashley as chairmen of the project. Through the years there have been many who have added to worship services by accompanying the singing on these musical 1 minstruments. I find these names who have been organists: Miss Alverta Coley, who later became I-trs. Moses B. Brack, I^irs. g ^ Minnie Johnson, i'lorenoe Stacy, vrtio later became Mrs. Charles C. d o v/eaver, Mrs. A. \'I. Ellis, Mdss Maude Smith, Miss Emma Johnson g who later became Mrs. Jess Smith, I-frs. Herbert Kicholson, Vada ^ Johnson, Grey Johnson, Dorothea Norrington, I^s. Leo F. Brock, Krs. Jessie Lee James Smith, V/illys Eugene James, Helen Ray . Harding and Patricia Caudle. At one time v/hen Mrs. Leo Brock v/as pianist V/illiam E. Kennen played the violin and Francis home^played the trumpet. The congregation joined in with them in joyful singing. THE CHOIR xhere has been a regular choir for the church since the late middle thirties from volunteers of the members, men and women, and young folks. \'l. Ben Smith served a year as song leader, Mrs. Kell H. Lashley served as choir director from the late thirties until 1963, when Mrs. Rufus L. Brock took over and served two years until I965. Some of the choir women under the supervision of Mi^s. Lottie Brock, f.!rs. Leon Foster, M^s. Burr C. Brock, Jr., and ISrs. Hell H. Lashley met and made.long black broadcloth robes which are used for preaching services. For Christmas the choir uses short ivhite broadcloth capes with I'^ed ties. -14- I Ci J'i r TiiG choir has added much bo the worship services on both regular and special occasions such as Easter and Christmas and funerals* Often they joined the choir of the Baptist church for funerals in either church. The twochoirs combined for the Easter Sunrise Services. § Good music and good singing by all the people makes foi'm o ^ UJa happier cooperative congregation and church family. m zj THE CHIMES g > In I95S klrs. Effie Jonas Allen presented chimes to the • ^ o g church as a memorial to her late husband, Oscar R. Allen, who y ^ >died in July, 1957* This memorial of chimes has given much S pleasure and inspiration to the entire community. It has sent out over the airv/aves from the top of the church building musical messages of Jesus and his love for all mankind. The chimes play each day at noon and six o'clock in the afternoon and at nine o'clock Sunday morning. The old year is given a farev/ell message at midnight December 31st, and the Hew Year is greeted on its entrance at New Year's eve bj/" this musical means. FAltMIKGTON CHARGE PATtSONAGE According to Rev. W. L. Grissom in his History of Methodism in Davie County, the Mocksville Circuit was divided in 1876 and the i'armington Circuit v/a® formed at this time. The Farmington ^ Circuit bought a parsonage in Smith Grove for the amount of v^^.25 - /. les, four dollars and twenty—five cents. Fourteen years later in _ 1890 the first Quarterly Conference ordered that this house be ^ sold and the proceeds applied towards a new parsonage to be built • • •r in i?armington. Consequently, immediately a new parsonage of three ^ bed rooms and a hall on the second floor and five rooms and a wide •r hall and tv/o porches on the first floor was begun. There were -15- rJ 4 1 >■ or m o _1 2 S2 ui two chimneys, seven fireplaces and a flue for the kitchen stove, and, according to Rev. Grissora it was being erected ^ in 1^90. The first pastor to occupy this tall imposing well built frame parsonage was Rev. P. L. Groom in 1^90-1891. Then Rev. Lucius Stacy and his family moved in. The building with its dug well, out of doors toilet ^ ^ Q_ ^facilities, hen house, barn, garden, and the wood pile, well ^ g o ofilled by neighbor members of the church, was the home for many ^ traveling preachers and their families. They lived, loved and ^ served from this home base. I^lany have returned to visit this their one time home. Time passed and weather and wear made repairs and repaintings necessary on the wooden structureo Something had been done almost every year to keep the building in good repair. Running water ^ was put into the kitchen and a bath room was built from part of one room and the back porch. It was well equipped with bathroom fixtures. Other improvements came along later. In 195 Rev. and Mrs. Alvin Amick and their family of six children and one on the way, moved into the stove heated parsonage. They used the entire house and yard space for their living. More repairs soon became evident. After a period of 65 years of heat and cold, rain, sleet, snow and the coming and going of many feet, the old house began again to show great need of repairs and refinishing of walls and floors with also the need of more modern heating method. Subsequently, it was inspected by the Parsonage Trustees, lay church members and the Thomasville District Superintendent, Ur. John H. Carper, and the Chairman -16- M a of the Conference Building Cominittee for the Thoraasville District, Burr G» Brock, Sr. Dr. Carper recommended selling the 6B year old building and apply returns to the building of a new parsonage. A special quarterly conference of the Farraington Charge was called July 19, I960, at Wesley Chapel Church for the §5 Spurpose of discussing sale of the parsonage and some of the § o furnishing. On July 24, I960, at Farmington a Quarterly Oon- □ ^ ference was called for further discussion. On August 14, I960, ^ ^ d gby majority vote of the Quarterly Conference and interested ^ s church members of the Charge assembled and voting, the Parsonage g Trustees were authorized to "Contract, deed, sell, mortgage or transact any other necessary written instruments to be executed by and on behalf of the Farmington Methodist Charge, that the proposed project of building a new and adequate parsonage may be undertaken immediately; further, that all proceeds from the sale of the old parsonage and lot be applied solely upon building of new parsonage".
