WHERE METHODIST’S ATTENDED CHURCH CENTURY AGO

Digging through some effects left by his late grandfather, a Jackson citizen 
the other day unearth this picture of Jackson’s first church.  Under the 
picture is the inscription “M.E. Church, South, Jackson, Mississippi; erected 
in 1838,” and the note below, “E. v. Seutter, jeweler and artist,” the 
photographer.  The church was on the site of the present Galloway Memorial 
church, and was the first church of any denomination built in the capital 
city.  Congregations organized and held services prior to that time, but none 
had their own church building until later.
