Faith
Crossing rivers and mountains from New Jersey, Seventh Day Baptists came in 1789-90 to Virginia and established their church at New Salem. In 1870 a daughter church was organized on Greenbrier Run, with Rev. Jacob Davis as first pastor and Rev. Walter B. Gillette as evangelist. Their faith is still honored.
