This history of the oldest religious assembly in Dickenson County records its organization as an arm of Reeds Valley Church in Russell County on Feb. 25, 1837, with names of members, pastors, clerks and deacons the first 100 years. In his Foreword, Judge Sutherland states: “Some of my earliest and happiest memories have to do with going to meeting at Sandlick Baptist Church. As a tiny lad I often went there … on the fourth Saturday or Sunday in the month. I rode the seven long miles perched behind my father or mother on ‘Old Suz,’ the family mule. Later, as I grew older, I frequently walked the distance.” Latest reprint, this 5.5 x 8.5 inch, 48 page, soft covered booklet.
