 ANTIOCH INSTITUTE
 Built in the 1850's, the school was operated by
the Antioch Primitive Baptist Church until it was 
sold to Stewart County in 1895.
  The building is believed to have been used for
church services until the handsome building to the 
south was erected for that purpose about 1885.
 The County operated the Louvale High School
here until 1928 when the upper grades were
transferred to Lumpkin. The elementary school
remained until 1942.
  The school is now used as the Louvale
Community House which serves as the home for 
the Sybil and John B. Richardson School of 
Sacred Harp Singing.
