First Presbyterian Church, 1874, Blackshear

The First Presbyterian Church was organized in Blackshear in 1872 and and this historic chapel was built two years later, in 1874. Though the congregation has grown over its nearly 150-year history, making expansions as needed, the main historic structure has remained. It was completely restored in 2018. It is similar in style to the nearby First Presbyterian Church in Brunswick.

I immediately though of Mt. Vernon when I saw this house. It’s an amazing example of the Colonial Revival style.

Central Hallway Farmhouse, Pierce County

I don’t know what I like better, the circa 1900 farmhouse or the oak tree. Together they make for a perfect scene of rural South Georgia.
