Wallace Bailey probably performed more marriages than any other preacher in our area. Rev. Bailey was clerk, then pastor of the Burning Springs Church in what is now Salyersville, KY. The present congregation still holds him in high esteem and his picture still hangs above the pulpit in this old church.
