In July 2003 Cathey Bruce Roark was given the attendance records for Salem Church on Douglas Lane just north of Gallatin. Her husband’s grandmother, Gustine Roark, who had died earlier in the year, had
kept the attendance records for Salem Church. Prior to returning the records to the church, Cathey provided a photocopy of those records to Howard Stone Baulch for transcription. The church has given
its permission to publish all information earlier than 1945.
Recorded below is the Register of Pastors. Names in
parentheses were names that appear to be handwritten in the original copy after
the initial recording. Spellings recorded here are faithful to the original
copy.
