Children’s Day group
Girls holding wreaths. Group includes Sue Appleton, the photographer's daughter, so this is probably a First Baptist Church group, since that is the church the Appleton family attended.

Christ Episcopal Church
This is a photo of Christ Episcopal Church. A charter incorporating the Parish was obtained from the County Court in 1854. The cornerstone was laid in 1858, and the church was consecrated in 1860. The church has functioned as a house of worship continuously ever since. We celebrated our 170th anniversary in November of 2024 with a rededication of the church.
