1870: Helped to establish Arbor Grove United Methodist Church

  • From Arbor Grove UMC website - "About the year of 1870, Mrs. Annie Grant Hayes and her husband, J. Washington Hayes, helped to establish the first Arbor of the present Arbor Grove United Methodist Church located between the communities of Millers Creek and Purlear in Wilkes County, North Carolina. Mr. and Mrs. Hayes were assisted by the Reverend Benny Weisner, a pioneer circuit rider from Iredell County. The church, a brush arbor was built of upright poles covered with brush. The seats were made of rough hewn logs. Scaffolds covered with dirt furnished a safe place for pine torches to light the Arbor for night services."
