Liberty Presbyterian Church, 1855, Sharon

Founded as South Liberty Presbyterian in Wilkes County in 1820, this historic congregation first built a log church about four miles from the present location in 1828. This structure was built in 1855 and moved here in 1877.

It’s a simple but beautiful church.

 

 

Sharon Methodist Church, Circa 1902, Taliaferro County

Though the congregation at Sharon Methodist dates to around 1886, the community that organized this church came from the nearby Raytown Methodist Church. It’s one of the most unique church buildings in all of Georgia and its Victorian design is more reminiscent of a house than a church. It was built by a local carpenter from Crawfordville.
