Bay Branch Primitive Baptist Church was organized on 22 April 1877 and is among the oldest and most historic congregations in Evans County. Justin Daniel notes that the present structure was built circa 1900 with the rear wing added in 1989. Elder A. R. Strickland was the first pastor and charter members were: Martin E. Rogers; Sara Jane Rogers; William H. Bazemore; Hester A. C. Bazemore; and James J. Martin.
the current structure is circa 1900,
with the rear portion annexed circa 1989
I wonder if the Bazemores who were original members were related to Coach Bazemore in Valdosta in 60’s and 70’s.
