IL as an established fact that Hoods Sar-

meeting and class-meeting, however,
had been held since 1903, in various
parts of the county. The Presbyte-
rians also came very soon after this
and had one of their churches in lib
erty township at an early day. Since
those days the churches of Jackson
county have grown and prospered. In
1876 there were ffty-two churches
and church property to the value OF
$40, 0,150, and of eight denominations.
On page 473 of same book | find
this:
''The first grist-mill built in the
county was corn-mill on the Black
Fork of Symmes Creek built during
the year 1908 by Daniel Faulkner,
and was on the land since owned by
Thomas A. Albans."
Faulkner's Mill and the Union Bap-
tist Church were within two hundred
yards of each other The church was
on high hill, little south Of west
from the mill. It was hewed log
house, with gallery in it. My father
hewed the logs for this first church.
He and my mother were members OF
the Baptist church before they came
from Virginia, in the year 1917. They
settled on the Clear Fork of Symmes'
Creek, mile and a half south west
from Faulkner's mill. This was in
Greenfield township, Galllia county.
They found several Baptists in the
neighborhood, among them Philip
Lambert, Benjamin, Gilbert and John
Bennett, John Rose, and others. The
Ohio Baptist Association was organ
lied in the year 1915, I think at
Storms Creek Church, in Lawrence
county. My father was delegate
from Union Church, in the conven-

Here let me digress 8 little, before
I forgot it. I think many OF the
pioneers of Jefferson township were
of Welsh descent, from the names.
Lewis, Phillips and Jenkins were
names among the pioneers. Moses

sister of BAIL Lewis, and James Phil

Pioneer Life-NO. 1 1.
BY DAVIS MACKLEY.

It is difficult to settle the wolf ques-
ton. Levi Howell says that Cary
Boyd did not kill the last wolf, in the
year 1884. Mr.. Howell says that he
was going to school in Jackson in the
year 1887, and Young Slater and his
son-in-law, John Moore, brought five
scalps Of young wolves to town and
got the reward prescribed by Statute.
Slater (ealled Slaughter by his
neighbors) was near neighbor of
mine John Moore was cousin Of
Cary Boyd. Their mothers were sis
ters of John, Thomas and Matt Far
ley, three of the pioneers Of Jefferson
township, who settled near the head
of Hale's Creek near seventy years
ago.
DR.. McGifin told me that man
named Byers, who lived near Byers'
Station, got the premium on the
scalps of young wolves as late as the
year 1910.
Leaving the last wolf question un-
settled for the present, will again
quote from the history of The Lower
Scioto Valley, page 476:
''To the above can be added the
Rev. John Kelley, Rev. William
Fuson, Rev. John Lee, Rev. Levi
Mcdaniel, John Young and Rev.
John Bennett. These were all of the
Baptist church and preached for sew
eral years, portion of them before
the organization Of the county The
Union Church of Regular Baptists
was erected IN 1919 and was probably
the first church building in the coun-
ty; if not but one other building was
ahead Of it. It stood for many years,
and had small graveyard attached,
but the church is gone and the burial
place of some of the pioneers, who
gave light, progress and Christianity
to Jackson county, who were buried
within its sacred enclosure, is also
gone, and not one stone left to tell
the spot. It is now field, and the
plow and hoe have done the work Of
obliteration. The first preachers in
Jackson county were Of the Methodist
and Baptist denominations, and for
many years held all their services at
the cabins of the settlers or at some
of the schooi-houses. The Union
Church of Regular Baptists, was first
dedicated by Rev. Basil Lewis, who
occupied its pulpit the first year. The
next year the Rev. Levi Mcdaniel
succeeded him. Preaching, prayer !
