The First Christian Church of Seymour was organized in March 1880 with 12 members: Mr. and Mrs. N. M. Bandy, Mr. Banteau, Miss May Boone, Judge and Mrs. R. J. Browning, Mr. and Mrs. Buck McEwen, Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Ransom, and Mr. and Mrs. Windy Turner. Early services were held in the Baylor County Courthouse, and later a nearby rock building was used. Cooperating with the Masonic Lodge, the church body erected a 2-story building in 1884. The present Gothic revival church of local stone was built during 1906-1907.
