Second Baptist Church
The congregation was organized in 1893 by African Americans. There were twelve people in the congregation when the church began. The congregation grew in size and by 1902 they desired their own church building. They began fundraising and the cornerstone for the structure was laid in June of that year. Coal mining in the area began to decline in the 1920s and the congregation’s membership peaked in the 1930s at 126 people. -from Wikipedia
