Revolution and settled in Virginia. Baptist preRchers were persecuted

so Emmanuel left Va, went to Tennessee County N.C. and thence to Robertson

Hollands. One was Wiley Holland who married BAthsheba Skinner {dau of

Emmanuel) and Daniel Holland M.D. who married Rebecca Skinner dau of

Dear Sir

I am researching the family of the Rev. John Moore ,Sr and his son-in-law

Emanuel Skinner (also Baptist minister) who were associated with the Falls

of Tar River in Nash County ca 1748/1780 - members of Kehukee A$sociation

of Baptist 1765. John Moore evidently died in N.C. but Emanuel Skinner

migrated to Robertson Co. Tn about 1798. If you have any church minutes re~

lating to this association in this particular period of time or any

inforimtion on these ministers- please inform me ano how the materials

would be made available to me. Any help most appreciated.

Yours truly

EMMANUEL SKINNER

Church at the Falls of Tar River, Nash County, North Carolina.

This is an ancient and respectable church. According to the

best accounts we can get, this church was constituted on Swift

Creek, by elders C. Daniel and John Moore, in the year 1757.

Whether the church was constituted on the Free-will or Regular

Baptist order, we are not able to say. Elder John Moore was

their pastor a number of years, while the church was on the re­

gular plan. But in 1780, he took a dismission from the church

and moved out of the neighbourhood. After this, Emmanuel Skinner,

a worthy member of this church being an ordained minister, and

raised up in the church, supplied the place of a pastor, but was

never appointed by the church to that office. In September,

1797, he took a dismission from the church and moved to Cumberland

in Tennessee .....
