HAMILTON SQUARE BAPTIST CHURCH

Those of us who are history minded are always excited to read and see any and all information on churches that have survived the ages. One of those churches is pictured above; the Hamilton Square Baptist Church on Nottingham Way in Hamilton Square. This beautiful old edifice is steeped in history. The well preserved graveyard adjoining the property has tombstones with the names of many  local citizens of the past. The 1967 directory of members of the church has many familiar names to me, and I'm sure to many other.

Tom, is this church across the street from the old Saul's funeral home? Ron

Tom, can you re-post this so that we can read it?

Thanks.

YES RON, IT IS DIAGONALLY ACROSS FROM THE SAUL COLONIAL HOME.

ANONYMOUS: MY SCREEN IS SET AT 1024x768 AND I CAN READ IT, ARE YOU RIGHT CLICKING ON THE PHOTOS AND CHOOSING "OPEN LINK IN A NEW WINDOW?"
WHEN I RIGHT CLICK AS ABOVE, I GET AN ENLARGED PHOTO AND ALSO A "+" SIGN INDICATING THAT I CAN STILL ENLARGE IT TO THE MAX. THE PRINT IS SMALL, BUT LEGIBLE IF YOU HAVE A GOOD MONITOR.

Tom, that worked great, thanks. I had been clicking on the photos to enlarge them (somewhat) but your method enlarged it much more revealing many old familiar names and faces.
