Crawfordsville - Montgomery InGenWeb Project

The "Baptist Church of Sugar Creek" built the first church edifice in Crawfordsville, on lot number 100, donated to them for that purpose by good Maj. Whitlock from his original plat of the town.  The demensions of the structure were 24 X 30 feet.  The material used was brick.  It was for several years the only building used exclusively for religious services, and such was the kindly spirit of accommodation governing the brethren in those early days, that all sects and creeds represented in the infant settlement were privileged to use it.  All traces of this primitive church have long since disappeared.

Sugar Creek Primitive Baptist Church stood at 412 S. Walnut St. in C'ville. This was the second bldg. of the congregation having been built in 1854 and in use until 1964.
