native son. U. S. Senator Harry
Flood Byrd.
Buried under the church are
Captain John Flood and his
daughter. Mary. Captain Flood
was also a great-great-great-
grandparent of Circuit. Court
Judge Joel Flood. of Appornat-
toX.
The bodies were placed under
the church as protection against
Indians. According to Judge
Flood, the date of their death is
not known.
English Sea Captain
What is known is that Captain
Flood, an English sea captain,
was born in 1894 ard came to
this country in 1852. He settled
in Albemarle county. a section
now in Buckingham county.
The church, located on Route
IS about four miles from Ar
vonia, is the oldest in Bucking-
ham county. Organized under the
Church of England, it dates from
the early zoos.
The Buckingham church ceased
to be used as a church at one
time. 1t was used as a tavern,
but in It'll it was taken over by
the Baptists 1t was the first
church of the denomination in
the county.
A rectangular building. with
gallery used by slaves before the
War Between the States, the
church has an old fashioned
charm.
Close to 1880 a shed room was
added to the building. It was
used as nursery.
Interior, Near Original
The interior of the old church
remains much the same today as
it did in its early days. New
furnishings have been added.
! For a long time the church had
no cemetery. Several acres of
land were given for that purpose
| by the late DR.. F.. w. BoatWright,
president of Richmond College.
His father, the late Rev. Ruben
Baker Boatwright. was pastor of
the church for many years.
In addition to its old architec-
tural features, tradition has kept
alive other manifestations of an
earlier era. A leaden image once
stood in front of the church. but
during the Revolutionary War it
was melted and bullets were
made from it. as tradition has it.
An appreciation Of the charac-
teriStics of the church inherited
from the past is shown in the
willingness Of a present-day con-
gregation to maintain the in
terror as near the original as
possible.
The membership today is 234.
The Rev. Carlton Milstead is the
present pastor.

Mr.. McCutchen said the

the Bible say about deacons? +?
Are they ordained or ap-
pointed?"
A. You will find the whole
Biblical record of the office
in Acts 6:1-6, Philippians IL,
and I Timothy 3:8.
Among Baptist Churches
there is no overall rule gov
erning the practice of the in
dividual local church. The
government of the Baptist
Churches is almost pure de-
mocracy.
A reading of Acts 6:6 would
seem to indicate that the dea-
cons, having been appointed,
were ordained by prayer and
the laying on of hands"

@. please tell me where in
the Bible I can find the names
of the brothers and sisters of
JesuS?"
