Ebenezer Church

Faith
4
Ebenezer Church, one-half mile west, was organized by Rev. Adam Rankin between 1793 and 1795. Rev. Robert Bishop came in 1803, when a stone church replaced the log house. From 1810 to 1818, the two were opposing leaders in a stormy controversy in the early history of Presbyterianism in Kentucky. Ephraim January donated the land, and he and other Revolutionary War veterans are buried there. The church was abandoned in 1875 and restored in 1953.
