Perry County, Tennessee

Churches

 

 

The idea for this page came about as I was thinking of Perry County's churches or houses of worship, both ones that no longer exist and ones that currently exist.   I would like this page to be a starting point to document this history.  

 

There will probably be several things I'd like included on this page:

 

  • I will have an alphabetical list below of churches.  I will start with churches currently listed in the yellow pages, then we will add ones that no longer exist as people e-mail me their names.

  • As we start to collect information about each church, I'll add a separate page for each church;

  • Biographies or histories or the churches would be helpful;

  • I'd like to collect pictures of the various churches;

  • Any other information that we can collect about the churches, will be added, such as transcribed newspaper articles, lists of members, stories or recollections about the church, etc.

 

I know that this will probably take a lot of time to put together.  Please e-mail me if you have any of this information, for any church (past or present) in Perry County.  Thank you.   Contact Jan Monnin, your Perry County TnGenWeb coordinator.
