SILERHILL UNITED METHODIST CHURCH
First services were held in the late
19th century in the Bear Creek Church
and later moved to the Silver Hill
School. The church was officially
organized in 1902. The land was donated
by "Uncle Will" Marshall and "Aunt Mollie"
Davis. The building was erected by the
members in 1909. The first trustees
were E. K. Davis, J. H. Smith, and S. A.
Watson. The Silver Hill Cemetery was
started by Mr. and Mrs. Will Davis in 1913.
This marker erected in memory of
J. B. Davis
By his friends
