Faith
1
Organized in the 1850s with twelve members, Harrison Chapel stood on land given by pioneer George Harrison and, with the influx of settlers, grew firm in faith and served people from a large surrounding area through annual camp meetings. The Rev. Horace Bishop, the Rev. A.M. Eubank, and the Rev. A.C. Littlepage were noted pastors. The cemetery site was given by Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Harrison, and many early settlers, including numerous Confederate veterans, are buried there. Heirs gather for annual commemorations. The church moved to Dew in 1870.
