Accompanying note: "Years before there was a church in this area, the
Sacred Harp Singers would meet at people's houses and sing. And then,
later, they used to meet at an old schoolhouse which was called Johnson
School and it was located on what is now Highway 674. But it disbanded
and it was reorganized here at this church, the best that we can find
out, on the 5th Sunday in May 1924."
