The history of Letford Methodist Church is unknown to
the compiler of these records. In the year 1880 it was
in the Bryan County Circuit, Eastman District of the
Methodist Church.

Prior to 1910, Mr. W.G. Tuten installed a sawmill at
Letford. He built a railroad from there to a place
called Norden, just east of Pembroke. He used the
railroad to haul logs and lumber to Norden where his
railroad connected with another railroad. The community
of Letford had a station on Tuten’s railroad.
