NOTES:
(1) = Old Hopewell-Keowee Church was established in 1790 and burned down in
1797. General Andrew Pickens built the original church on his property,
80 rods (440 yards) east of his dwelling, on the Keowee River. It's
believed that the stone foundations that were found on the north
side of Seed Orchard Road, might be that of Hopewell-Keowee or the Wesley
Methodist Chapel (also built by General Pickens). The church was in union
with the Carmel Church, which was located a few miles eastward on 23 Mile
Creek in the Pendleton District. Its been said that the Hopewell-Keowee
Church and the Wesley Chapel were located so close to each other, that the
pastors could ear each other preach.

GENERAL AREA HISTORY:
It is estimated by Ramsay in his history of South Carolina (1808) that in
1755, there were not even 23 families settled between the Waxhaws on the
Catawba River and Augusta on the Savannah River. Since much of the
upcountry was Indian land, settlement had centered in the coastal
counties. Prior to 1768, the only court held in South Carolina was held at
the City of Charleston. In 1768, however, South Carolina was divided into
six judicial districts, with courts to be held in each. What is now Oconee
County was in the Ninety-Six District. At the end of the Revolutionary
War, all of present-day Greenville, Anderson, Oconee, and Pickens counties
was Cherokee land. There was some white settlement in this area, and forts
had been erected in various places to protect the settlers. The judicial
set-up in South Carolina becomes quite fluid (and quite confusing) from
this time on until 1868. A law passed in 1783 recommended the division of
the judicial districts into counties of not more than forty square miles,
with each county to have its own courts. This was accomplished by 1785,
with the Ninety-Six District being further divided into Abbeville,
Edgefield, Newberry, Laurens, Union and Spartanburg counties. The lands of
present-day Oconee County were temporarily attached to the adjoining
counties of Laurens, Abbeville and Spartanburg.
The Indians had sided with the British during the Revolution, and were
forced to surrender their land. In 1785 a treaty was signed with the
Cherokee Indians at Hopewell, the home of Andrew Pickens; the following
year, a treaty was signed with the Choctaws at the same location. At about
this time it was estimated that the white population of the area was
9,500. By 1789, the residents of present-day Oconee County were having
difficulty with their judicial assignment, and the area was separated off
into Pendleton County. A courthouse was set up at the site of the
present-day town of Pendleton in 1790. The next year, however, the
Ninety-Six District was divided into upper and lower regions. The upper
region, composed of Pendleton and Greenville counties, was named the
Washington District; a district courthouse was set up at Pickensville near
the present-day town of Easley. In 1798 the name "county" once again
changed to "district"; Oconee County was in the Pendleton District, and
court was held in Pendleton. The population was increasing rapidly;
according to Ramsay's history, by 1800 it stood at 17,828. The area was,
however, still sparsely settled. In 1808, according to Ramsay, there was
only one acre of cleared land for every eight acres of uncleared land, and
only one inhabitant per 36 acres. Education was "at a low ebb," although
some schools had been established; one newspaper was being published, by
John Miller in Pendleton. In 1826 Pendleton District was further
subdivided into Pickens and Anderson districts. The county seat of the
Pickens District, which encompassed present-day Oconee County, was located
at Pickens Courthouse, or "Old Pickens."
While some of the settlers during this early period had come from the
low country of South Carolina, many were Scotch-Irish immigrants who had
fled Ulster for Pennsylvania to escape religious persecution. They then
traveled down the Great Wagon Road from Harrisburg, through the Shenandoah
Valley of Virginia, and into the piedmont region of the two
Carolinas. Some wealthy plantation owners from the low country did begin to
build second homes in the upstate, mostly to take advantage of the more
moderate summer climate. John C. Calhoun was one of these; his home, Fort
Hill, was later deeded to the state by his son-in-law, Thomas Clemson, and
became the site of Clemson University.
In 1868 Pickens District was divided into Pickens and Oconee counties. The
area was still a rural one, centered around courthouse towns which usually
had a courthouse, several churches, a school, and a few dozen citizens.
EARLY PRESBYTERIANISM:
The early settlement of South Carolina took place along the coast. The
first minister to preach to Presbyterians in South Carolina was Rev.
Archibald Stobo, who arrived in Charleston in 1700. Until 1704, he was the
pastor of the "Mixed Presbyterian and Independent Church" there, the only
place of worship for Presbyterians in the entire colony. There was
probably no organized presbytery in South Carolina until the 1730s. Early
Presbyterians were organized under the Presbytery of Orange, Synod of New
York and Philadelphia. By 1760 there were eleven Presbyterian ministers in
the colony, concentrated in areas near the coast. By 1784 membership in
the Carolinas was increasing, resulting in a desire to form a local
presbytery. Following the various Indian treaties signed in the late
1780s, settlement of the Upstate accelerated, mostly by Scotch-Irish
Presbyterians who had traveled down the Great Wagon Road from Pennsylvania.
By 1789, the year the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church was
established, there were ministers appearing in some upstate areas,
including the Waxhaws, Saluda, Rocky River, and Upper and Lower Long Cane.
Among churches which had been organized in the upstate at this point were
Richmond/Carmel (1787), Bradaway/Broadway (1788), Good Hope (1789) and
Roberts (1789). It was also at this time that Hopewell (Keowee) or the
"Old Stone Church" was established. In 1790 the list of Oconee County
churches expanded with the addition of Bethlehem and Philadelphia (or
Ebenezer).
Rev. Thomas Reese, who was serving Hopewell (Keowee) Church at the time,
eloquently described the possibilities for church growth in the
region. Noting that circumstances were "favorable to virtue and religion,"
he also noted that "As the country is in its infancy, we have yet to expect
that these congregations will soon become much stronger, and in the course
of a few years, if peace continues, it is probable that each of them will
be able to support a minister. It is a pleasing reflection to the friends
of religion, that as the people travel westward, the gospel travels with
them, or soon follows after them; that God inclines the hearts of
ministers, respectable for learning, worth, and piety, to settle in these
uncultivated regions."
Southern representation at early meetings of the General Assembly was
limited, since meetings were always held in the North, and travel was
complicated and expensive. Thus figures on the development of churches in
South Carolina are scarce. The western "frontier" of South Carolina was
considered a missionary territory, with ministers traveling around and
"supplying" a number of churches. Indeed, a number of the same ministers
served the various Presbyterian churches in Oconee County. Salaries were
often left unpaid; the largest contribution toward the salary of Rev. John
Simpson, first pastor at Roberts Church, was $5.00, and some members were
only able to give a few pennies, or gifts in kind such as corn, wheat, and
whiskey. Often these itinerant preachers were not even reimbursed for
travel and lodging. Consequently, some ministers turned to teaching,
opening early academies and schools. Often they found this work more
congenial, and left the ministry, contributing further to the shortage of
qualified pastors.
In 1796 Rev. Andrew Brown was appointed to spend time as a missionary on
the South Carolina frontier, at a salary of $16.66 per month. In 1797 he
apparently had charge of the Bethlehem and Philadelphia churches on Cane
Creek in present-day Oconee County. In his history of South Carolina,
Walter Edgar estimates that only 8% of the white population in the upstate
belonged to churches at this time. Church membership, however, was
increasing, largely as a result of massive ecumenical camp meetings. The
early churches were simple, usually built of undressed logs. They had few
windows, and were furnished with benches rather than pews. No musical
instruments were employed in the services.
It was during this time that Nazareth/Beaverdam (1803) and Bethel (1805)
were organized. Edgar states that membership had almost tripled, to 23% of
the white population, by 1810. As for the Presbyterians, by that time
there were only 9 ministers to serve 25 churches and 634 congregants in the
entire Presbytery of South Carolina. By 1826 Mills' "Statistics of South
Carolina" indicated that there was a dominant Presbyterian presence in
Abbeville, Chester, Fairfield, Greenville, Laurens, Pendleton, Richland and
York districts. In Oconee County, Westminster and Richland had been
organized in 1834. Ministers continued to be scarce, however, and most
only stayed in one church for a short time. It was not until 1859 that the
concept of a permanent pastorate became popular in the church.
By 1870 there were still only 29 ordained ministers in South Carolina
Presbytery, and only 13 of these were devoting their full time to the
ministry. During this time the Presbytery continued to employ "domestic
missionaries" to supply vacant pulpits. By the late nineteenth century,
after a restructuring of the Presbytery to form Enoree Presbytery, there
were 19 ministers left in the Presbytery of South Carolina to serve 39
churches, and rural churches continued to languish on into the 20th century.
(For more information on the Presbyterian Church in South Carolina, see:
Howe, George, History of the Presbyterian Church in South Carolina;
History Of The Presbyterian Church In South Carolina Since 1850, edited by
F. D. Jones, D. D. And W. H. Mills, D. D.; and Strupl, Milos, History of
the Presbytery of South Carolina, 1784-1984.)
OLD STONE CHURCH HISTORY:
According to Howe's history of the Presbyterian Church in South Carolina,
the first reference to the Hopewell Church was in the minutes of the
Presbytery of South Carolina for October 13, 1789. According to the
minutes, "A people on Seneca apply to be taken under our care and receive
supplies" (supplies in this case meaning supply preachers). John Simpson,
who was then serving as a missionary on the western frontier of South
Carolina, was appointed to preach to them one Sunday a month. At the time
he began this ministry, there were only two Presbyterian churches in the
area: Bradaway (later Broadway) and Richmond/Carmel. Simpson, a hero of
the Revolutionary War, was to change this, founding so many churches in the
area that he was known as the "Father of Presbyterianism" in Anderson County.
The church itself was organized near the village of Pendleton by a group
of men from Abbeville, described as "not so numerous as the people of
Carmel, but better united, more catholic in the principles and disposition,
and liberal in their sentiments. A few of their number are wealthy and
very forward to support the gospel." Among these more wealthy members were
undoubtedly Andrew Pickens and Robert Anderson, revolutionary war heroes
and friends who are buried in the churchyard. A log church was built in
the early 1790s, located east of Ezekial Pickens' residence on the north
side of the road. The church was named Hopewell after the residence of
Andrew Pickens. Due to the existence of other Hopewell churches in the
Synod, it was usually called Hopewell-Keowee in church records, because
of its location near the Keowee River.
The early ministers of the Hopewell congregation served both Hopewell and
Carmel churches. At first the churches were only occasionally supplied;
ministers included Simpson, Hunter and Mecklin. The first permanent pastor
was Rev. Thomas Reese, a native of Pennsylvania and a graduate of
Princeton, who had been serving at Salem on Black River. According to
Brackett's history of the church, Reese "pursued his studies with an ardor
which injured his health and abridged his life." His service in the
low country had further undermined his health, and he died at the age of 54
in 1796, and is buried in the churchyard. The congregation at that time
numbered about forty. Rev. Reese described the congregants of Hopewell
Church as "remarkable for the great simplicity of their manners, the
plainness of their dress, and their frugal manner of living. At the
distance of 250 miles from the Capital, they are strangers to luxury and
refinement. Blessed with a healthy climate, brought up in habits of labor
and industry, and scarce of money, they are for the most part clothed in
homespun; nourished by the produce of their own farms, and happily appear
to have neither taste nor inclination for high and expensive living. There
is a quiet degree of equality among them. There are few slaves among them,
and these are treated with great kindness and humanity." Dr. Reese was
well-know for converting Indians. One of those he converted, Osenappa, is
said to have saved the Reese family during an Indian uprising, and is
buried in the churchyard.
The original church building was destroyed by fire in 1796, and work on a
second building was begun in 1797 on 16.94 acres donated by printer John
Miller. Miller had come from England to Philadelphia in 1783, and later
moved to Charleston, where he was printer for the State of South
Carolina. In 1795 he moved to Pendleton, where he founded the area's first
weekly newspaper, "Miller's Weekly Messenger." This second building was to
be constructed of stones gathered from nearby fields, and work proceeded on
a subscription basis; when donated funds ran out, the work stopped until
more could be raised. Among the major subscribers were Andrew Pickens,
Robert Anderson, George Reese, William Steele, Capt. McCaleb, Major Taylor,
Mr. Neale, William McGuffin, Hardy Owens, Mrs. Whitner, Mr. Calhoun and
General Earle. Pickens was an early elder of the church, and donated the
pulpit and pews. The new stone building, completed in 1802, was described
in the Pendleton Messenger as a "commodious" one, which will "stand as an
enduring monument of the workmanship of John Rusk." Rusk, the builder, had
been a soldier in the Revolutionary War, and was the father of Thomas
Jefferson Rusk, later a senator from Texas. The church also served as a
school and, with the heavy wooden shutters, could serve as a fort if needed.
Following the death of Dr. Reese, the church was supplied by Rev.
Montgomery for two years. For some of the time between 1800 and 1810, the
church was dependent on pastors supplied to it by the
Presbytery. According to Howe, "The great revival of 1802 was felt here,
and some persons now living recollect the camp fires around the
church." Among those who served during this time were John Simpson,
Dickson, James Gilliland, James McElhenny, Benjamin R. Montgomery and
Templeton. Benjamin Montgomery served from 1805-1807. Rev. James
McElhenny was later installed as pastor; he died October 4, 1812 at the age
of 44 and is buried in the churchyard. Brackett says that "His mind was
strong & lucid rather than brilliant. His was the eloquence of profound
nervous reasoning rather than of fancy & of passion. His pulpit
performances always acceptable & solemn varied in excellence when compared
with themselves." Reverend McElhenny's son-in-law, Reverend John D.
Murphy, served as his assistant for a number of years; he, too, died in
1812 and is buried in the cemetery. The cause of these deaths is
interesting; Murphy and Dr. E. Smith had established rice fields in the
area, in which originated a malarial fever. Both Murphy and his
father-in-law, McElhenny, died as a result.
After the deaths of McElhenny and Murphy, the congregation was again
dependent upon supply pastors. Then Reverend James Hillhouse, who was
ordained and installed in April of 1817, was installed as pastor. He was
the first pastor who did not also serve the Carmel church. Although,
according to Brackett, "his labors were blessed by a very considerable
accession of members," he moved to Alabama in 1822. Anthony W. Ross then
served the congregation, but he resigned in 1827. During his pastorate, in
1824, the congregation decided to build a more convenient church two miles
away in the village of Pendleton, and preaching was transferred to this
location. The name of the congregation was eventually changed from
Hopewell to Pendleton Presbyterian. While the history of the Hopewell
congregation continues in Pendleton, it can no longer accurately be
considered the history of the Old Stone Church itself.
The church and cemetery were allowed to run down. Apparently this process
was hastened by a fire in the mid-1800s, which burned away the woodwork of
the church. One description of the grounds, written probably during the
1870s, referred to the plank fence that enclosed the graveyard as "fast
rotting out of sight." Shrubbery had run wild, and "the brier and Cherokee
rose vied with each other in the race for pre-emption." While the cemetery
was still used for burials, "the air of neglect and forgetfulness which
hung the scene was more than ethereal one could cut it with his knife."
The Old Stone Church and Cemetery Association was formed 1893 at the
instigation of Dr. O.M. Doyle of Seneca and Capt. J. Miles Pickens of
Pendleton, who called a meeting of those interested in the historic church
and its cemetery. By this time, according to the Keowee Courier, the
exterior walls bore "the marks of the seasons that have come and gone
through many decades." The cemetery was described as "vine grown," and the
stones as "worn and weather-stained." The group met in August of 1893, and
again in October, to lay plans for the Association. At a meeting in
December of that year, a constitution and by-laws were adopted, and
officers were elected. Thereafter, meetings were held annually. In 1901
an endowment committee was formed to appeal for funds to be spent "in the
care and improvement of the cemetery grounds, which shall always be kept
clean and free of weeds and undergrowth, and as opportunity and means offer
be improved by being carefully laid off into lots and walks and planted
with trees, shrubbery, and grass." At this same meeting, it was reported
that a stone wall had been built around the cemetery at a cost of
$516.66. In 1903 the Pendleton Church transferred the care of the church,
grounds and cemetery to the Cemetery Association.
Apparently some religious work still took place at the church. During the
pastorate of W.H. Mills at Fort Hill Church in Clemson (1906-1917), he organized
a Sunday school at the Old Stone Church, and preached there once a month. In
the 1960s the church was taken apart stone by stone and rebuilt. It is now open
only for special services. (For further information on the earlier history of
the Old Stone Church, see Richard Newman Brackett's The Old Stone Church, Oconee
County, South Carolina. Columbia: Bryan, 1905.)
CHURCH RECORDS:
Although there is a Presbyterian Historical Society in Philadelphia, the
best place to find material on the "Southern" church is at
Montreat. Here's what the Society says about this on their website:
The Presbyterian Historical Society serves its constituency from two
regional offices, one in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and one in Montreat,
North Carolina.
The Philadelphia office documents "northern stream" predecessor
denominations and their work, congregations, and middle governing bodies in
thirty-six states, and the work of the current denomination's national
agencies.
The Montreat office documents "southern stream" predecessor denominations
and congregations and middle governing bodies in fourteen southern states.

Old Stone Church, Clemson Early settlers in the area built this Presbyterian
Church in 1797. Legend has it that the early farmers gathered stones from their
fields, while the women of the area carried sand in their aprons to be used in
the building of the church. The cemetery has many historical markers, including
General Andrew Pickens and John Rusk (the builder of the church). This was the
first church in South Carolina to allow slaves to be members. According to
church records, by 1833 there were 111 white members and 69 black members. The
church was also used as a school and a fort when needed. Many markers in the
cemetery can still be read almost 200 years later. The church is also an
official site along the South Carolina National Heritage Corridor. It is open
daily, weather permitting, and if not reserved. Old Stone Church is located on
Hwy. 76 between Clemson and Pendleton, at 101 Stone Circle. Call (864) 654-2061.

Hopewell-on-the-Keowee Church
The small Hopewell-on-the-Keowee Church sat on this site from 1791 to 1796 when
it burned in a forest fire. At that time, this property belonged to Ezekial
Pickens, second son of General Andrew Pickens who had given Hopewell Plantation
to him and his brother, Andrew Pickens, Jr.
Following the Revolutionary War, General Pickens established the 593-acre
Hopewell Plantation. The plantation house still stands on the Clemson University
Cherry Farm. The name "Hopewell" was taken from the church where the General had
been an elder in Abbeville District. "Keowee" comes from the Keowee River, later
called Seneca River or Seneca Creek.
The Pickens brothers and Colonel Robert Anderson were instrumental in starting a
Presbyterian congregation in the area. The log "meeting house" was constructed
"about 80 rods (440 yards) east of the Ezekial Pickens dwelling on the north
side of the road which leads from Fant's Grove to Clemson." Today, that road is
named Seed Orchard Road.
The church was first mentioned in South Carolina Presbytery minutes on October
13, 1789: "A people on Seneca [River] apply to be taken under our care and
receive supplies." At the same meeting, the Reverend John Simpson was appointed
to supply the new church on Sabbath once a month.
Hopewell-Keowee, sometimes referred to as Hopewell-Seneca, was formed in union
with Carmel church (formed in 1785) of the Easley area. For many years any
ministers appointed served both churches. At that time most churches had full
services under the guidance of a minister only once a month.
Dr. Thomas Reese, a graduate of Princeton and a gifted orator, and who had moved
to the Pendleton District from the Low Country, agreed to lead the two
congregations. The first elders included Andrew Pickens, Robert Anderson, and
Thomas Dickson. They were elected to serve for a lifetime, or until they moved
away.
An account by Dr. Reese stated that the church was organized "by the spirited
exertions of a few men who removed from Abbeville. They were not so numerous as
the people of Carmel, but better united, more catholic in their principles and
dispositions, and liberal in their sentiments. A few of their number are wealthy
and very forward to support the Gospel; among whom are General Pickens and
Colonel Robert Anderson, both men of great influence in the state of South
Carolina ŠOwing to these circumstances, their ability to support religion in
proportion to their numbers is greater than that of any other congregation in
the upper part of the State." (Thomas Reese, 9/15/1793)
In 1796, a forest fire destroyed the log meeting house and work began on a new
church, now known as the "Old Stone Church" located at the Junction of Old Stone
Church Road and Highway 28/76, near Pendleton, on land donated by John Miller
the printer. Dr. Reese's health failed and he died that year at the age of 54.
He was the first to be buried in the cemetery of the "Old Stone Church" before
construction of the new building was finished.
In 1912, a stone marker was erected to commemorate Hopewell on the Keowee Church
and the people who had served it. The monument and stone fence that surrounded
it were vandalized in the 1980s. This prompted its transfer to the Old Stone
Church where it sits inside, safe from vandals, but regrettably relieved of its
duty to proclaim "It happened here."

Keowee River Baptist (Part 2)
Transcribed by: Lois E. Branch <Webevannin@aol.com> July 5, 2000
It was here at this Old Fort that the betrayal of Ensign Cottymore took
place. The treachery of Chief Oconostota is but another page of crime added
to the large list of Indian trickery.
Through this territory once roamed the Cherokee braves on their peaceful
pursuit of hunting and fishing, or when at war their hideous war cry resounded
in reverbrating echoes from hill to hill.
Here abounded wild life in profusion. The bear, buffalo, wolves, catamounts,
deer, and numerous other wild life roamed free. The streams were
plentifully laden with fishes of all kinds. It was in reality the hunters
paradise, and over these same hills and valleys hunted the famous Daniel
Boone.
Attakullakulla, by some termed the first South Carolinian, lived here,
a friend of the white man, a leader of his tribe. It was he who sued for peace
with Colonel Grant in the campaign waged in1761. He was a famous statesman
among his tribe, and respected greatly by the whites.
Who wants to live in a country free from tradition, folk lore, and legend?
Here the legendary Indian Maiden, Cateechee, started on her long journey to
Ninety Six to warn her lover of an impending Indian raid, and in crossing the
streams from this point to Ninety Six, gave them the name of Mile Creek,
Six Mile, Twelve Mile, Eighteen, Three and Twenty, Six and Twenty, and so on
to Ninety Six. Of course we know today that this is pruely a legend, for old
maps drawn and surveyed some 30 or 40 years before Cateechee made her
trip in 1760 or 1761, have been found, and on these maps these streams which
Cateechee was supposed to have named were already named. In all probability
the early Indian Traders gave them their names. However, we love this old
legend as well as others.
Too, through this immediate territory, wound the famous old Cherokee
Path, which led from Charleston to the Indian town of Keowee, thence on
across the mountains to the Mississippi River. It was over this path that the
early Traders traveled, that the Indians trailed, and that the conquering armies
of the whites traversed.
Within this territory in which we are gathered today was fought the
Indian battles of Gap Hill and Eastatoe, for Colonels Montgomery and Grant
in their wars of 1760 and 1761 traversed these same hills and it was Grant
who broke their power in 1761.
We might mention also that Colonel Williamson, in his Snow Campaign came
through this territory and completely broke the power of the Cherokee Nation.
So we see that this section of Pickens County is truly an historical spot, and
as was said before, perhaps the most historical part of the county, and it seems
fitting that we should gather here today, not only to commemorate the founding
of this old church, but refresh our minds on some of the history of our county.
If I were a minister of the Gospel I think I would take a text today.
In Revelations is found a passage, written by John while exiled on the
Isle of Patmos. It reads, "I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard
behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet." We can with truth apply this
verse of Scripture to us today. There comes from behind us a great voice
as of a trumpet. That voice is the voice of the past. It rings clear to us the
deeds of Ensign Cottymore, Chief Oconostota, and Attakullakulla.

The following information was obtained in January 1997 from an Internet Web Site
called about The Old Stone Church in Clemson, SC, built by John Rusk:
"The Old Stone Church"
Slaves in Church The Old Stone Church was the first church in South Carolina to
allow slaves to be members. They were not only permitted to enjoy the church
services, but were welcomed as members, sitting in the gallery at the rear of
the church. The slaves entered the gallery from a staircase located on the rear
wall. The staircase is shown here, prior to the rebuilding of the church that
took place during the early 1960s. Even though the community was sparsely
populated, the membership of the church grew rapidly. According to church
records, by 1833, the roll of the church show one hundred and eleven whites and
sixty-nine black members. This list did not include children and non-members.
Adding these in, it would have placed the total at well over two hundred. Taken
from the earliest Session Book is this note: 'When 16 colored people were
examined on their faith in Christ and fitness for membership, eight were
received on condition they obtain certificates of good character from their
masters, and eight are to wait for further instructions. While members had to
show good character prior to being accepting into the church, once in, they
had to abide by the rules of the church. The following extract tells of a woman
who did not.
Moses, Hannah, and Maria are reported to have forsaken the ordinance of this
church. Whereupon they are cited to appear before the Session of this church and
answer the charge. Mary, a servant of Mrs. Walker, having formerly been in the
communion of this church and having been under suspension for the irregularity
for forming a connection without a formal marriage, came before the Session and
acknowledged her faults and professed her penitence for her former and careless
manner of life, whereupon she is received under the care of this Session to be
restored in due time as soon as it shall be satisfactorily ascertained that she
shows her reformation to be genuine and permanent.'
The Old Stone Church was not only used as a church. It served as a school, and
in 1919, the first Sunday School in the Upstate was held at the Old Stone
Church. The builders of the church knew that living this close to Indians was
dangerous. The church could double as a fort if it were needed. Therefore, they
built heavy wooden doors which could close over the glass windows to add
protection.
o-----------o
Osenappa
One of the legends surrounding the Old Stone Church is the story of Osenappa.
While little is known if this Cherokee Indian, his impact on the life on Dr.
Thomas Reese, the first pastor of the church, must have been great. Osenappa was
converted to Christianity by Dr. Reese, and he was very influential in
converting other Indians. According to the story, it was Osenappa who supplied
the Reese family with food and supplies in their early days. When an Indian
uprising occurred, it was the actions of Osenappa that saved the Reese family.
For a time, the Indian friend lived in the Reese household. Osenappa is buried
in the Old Stone Church. His tomb is marked by a simple marker bearing his name
and the date 1794. The family respected Osenappa so much, that George Reese, a
son of Dr. Reese, named one of his sons Osenappa. Unfortunately, the boy only
lived for seven months before he died of diphtheria. His small tombstone reads
"Osenappa, son of George and Anna Reese, Died at 7 Months."
Restoration
In the 1960s, the church was completely restored. An earthquake sixty years
before had severely damaged the structure of the church. To complete the
restoration, it was necessary to take the church apart stone by stone and
rebuild the entire structure. After several months of work, the building was
completed. The inside of the church was restored to its original stark whites
and deep browns. The magnificent pulpit was also restored.. The present
building is used for special services, and the Cemetery is still used by many
upstate families and members of the two Presbyterian churches (the Pendleton
Presbyterian Church and Fort Hill Presbyterians that branched off of the
original Old Stone congregation. The Church is used for weddings year round. It
usually sees at least one wedding a week, for the entire year, and
reservations have to be made a year in advance. The cemetery is open to the
public and is a very interesting place to visit. As one walks the cemetery
grounds, history is everywhere. During the early days of the church, the
engraving of tombstones was an art. Many of the carvers put their names on the
stones so that other families could see their work. In addition, the skill of
these workers is evident today. Many of the markers can still be read, almost
two hundred years later. The standing of the Old Stone Church is a testament to
a people not forgotten. As a writer said of the church "it has been an influence
for the good of humanity, the preservation of the faith, once delivered to the
saints and a dominate factor in those sturdy principles that have brought forth
a citizenry of stalwart men and women, whose lives have been a decisive force in
bringing this great nation to its present exalted position of leadership among
the great powers of the world." Information for the above Web page article was
provided by Mrs. Peggy Rich of Clemson. For more information on the Old Stone
