Old home in Forsyth County
Judging by the well out front, I am guessing that this house in Forsyth County dates back maybe 70 years.

Bethel Baptist Church of Forsyth County
It was established in 1836 with 11 members meeting at the Armstrong Meeting House. In 1841 they were incorporated by the state legislature. In 1842, they had a member ship of 92 members and bought 2 1/2 acres for a church which was completed in the same year. Additional land was later purchased for a cemetery. At some point in the 1870s they had decided to build a new church but nothing was done until they bought land across the road. The new church which is the current structure was constructed in the early 1900s.

Shady Grove Baptist Church in Forsyth County
It was constituted in May 1838 in what was then a remote part of northeast Forsyth County. There were 6 charter members. They were deeded land at that time but there is no record of a structure that early. There was no regular pastor until December 1840 when Rev Drewery Hutchins was named pastor. In 1841, the church received a charter from the state and the current site was deeded to the church, but the church was not built until between 1846 and 1851. The current church was built on the same lot as the first church and is the third church on the lot. It was originally built about 1900. It had extensive renovations and additions of Sunday school rooms and a portico in 1966. The steeple was added in 1970.
