Organized as a non-denominational church in 1837, Union United Methodist 
Church is the oldest church in Quitman County.  Thirty four charter members 
constituted it's initial membership.  Among them were Mrs. George Ellis, the 
first Charter member and Mrs. Adelyn Lee Crumbley who donated the land for the 
original Church.  The present 1867 structure relaces the original log 
building.  Trustees in 1867 were Abraham Shields, John Phillips, Thomas S. 
Bryant, James W. Lewis and James Suggs.

Additional Comments:
Union United Methodist Church is a lovely old country church.  It has been 
very well taken care of and services are still held out there.  There is no 
air conditioning and only a gas heater.  The church sits right next to the 
road near Morris.
