Subject: Re: Red Bank Church of Edgefield From: joyemac Date: December 13, 1998 Claire, Red Bank Church is actually in Saluda, SC, about 16 miles from Edgefield. In 1796 that area may have been Edgefield County. There was Old Saludy Town a few miles from present day Saluda. I'm not sure how the town of Saluda ended up where it is today. I have been to Red Bank Church as it is close to Little Stevens Creek Baptist Church, McKindree Methodist Church and Mountain Creek Baptist Church. Little Stevens is just a few miles of Saluda off Hiway 378 and Meeting St. Rd. McKindree is on Hiway 378 toward Hiway 25 about 8 miles out of Saluda. Mountain Creek is near McKindree and Hiway 25. I have a scanner to connect to my pc and hope to get pictures I have of all these churches on my webpage (see below). I'm not sure about the orginal members at Red Bank, but will check at our library one day this week . Try the SC GenWeb site below and click on Saluda County on the map (or any other county which you wish to visit. Red Bank shows there. A Red Hill shows in Edgefield. You can see the churches and cemeteries, but there are no family names or history of them listed. http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/3837/ Also, check out my pages below.
