Pope County Historical Association

Point Remove Church is subject of history meeting

The Point Remove Primitive Baptist Church will be the subject of the Pope County Historical Association meeting Friday, Nov. 14, at the St. Marys Regional Medical Center cafeteria in Russellville.

David Lindsey will present the program. It will be about the 175th anniversary of the church, which was founded in 1933 near Primm Bridge in the Happy Bend community. It was later moved to Glass Village, south of Appleton, then to Atkins and finally to Russellville. Extensive records have been preserved, including membership rolls.

This will be the last meeting of 2008, and officers for the next two years will be elected.

No reservations are needed for the meal, which begins at 6 p.m. The meeting, at 7, is free and open to the public.
