The Little Redstone Church on the Hillside

It was in 1965 that my grandmother Gladys Bell Wolfe Parker took a trip across the Untied State in an attempt to
discover more about her roots. She had written to Agnes Farquhar who invited her to come and visit.
It was then that she discovered for the first time the Old Redstone Church. And the part it would play in her family history.  There she would find pieces to the puzzles in her family tree, graves of several of her ancestors. 

Gladys Parker took this photo of her distant cousins after a Church Service, Agnes Farquhar the wife of John Farquhar far left. Allen Farquhar far right, Sunday School superintendent for many many years.  The trip and these photos  and other photos of her trip, became a priceless treasure for Gladys Parker.

It was on that trip Allen Farquhar was kind enough to give Gladys an extra copy of a old photo of the Old Redstone Church. It was the photograph  with the congregation posing outside. She was thrilled and cherished.  She later wrote  a journal of her visit with family, and her trip to the Old Redstone Church, and shared with her family in years to come.  And that's how I became interested in visiting the Old Redstone Church myself.
