Nacoochee Presbyterian Church

Founded in 1870 by Captain James H. Nichols, who moved his family from Milledgeville after the Civil War and settled in the Nacoochee Valley. The families of newly emancipated slaves who remained in the area were among the worshippers in the new church. In 1903, the congregation moved from its original church building, which is now Crescent Hill Baptist Church, and began meeting in the Nacoochee Institute. This was a period of remarkable growth for Nacoochee Presbyterian.
