HISTORY: -------- A climbing steeple reaching skyward distinguishes the Madison Baptist Church in the scenic community of "Old Madison" in Oconee County. Established in 1883, the church was originally of unpainted board construction, and host to the Beaverdam Association for the first time in 1889. Around the turn of the century, the membership decided to build a new church and razed the old building to salvage materials for use in this church, erected in 1905. A two-year expansion program started in 1943 added Sunday School rooms in the basement. Another two-year project begun in 1962 added five classrooms, pastor's study, nursery and other facilities at the rear. The distinctive steeple tower of the old church still houses the bell, which sounds over the community on occasion. DATAFILE INPUT . : Paul M.
