Collection Overview

Scope and Content
Volumes 2 and 4 are mislabeled on the microfilm; vol.2 contains church minutes, and vol. 4 contains the Sunday School record. Many of the pages are too faded to read. This is a microfilm copy of the records of the South Union Baptist Church, in Hopkinsville, Ky. The materials include two church record books which also contain minutes, a Sunday School record, and minutes of the meetings of the B.Y.P.U, which is believed to be the Baptist Young People's Union.
