Title: Arcadia Missionary Baptist Church

"The move to Arcadia was upsetting to ma and I would find peace as I attended this church. My husband's, Neil Grant, grandmother was once secretary of this church. My maternal grandfather, Frank Wallace, was churched. (Thrown out of this church, because he played the fiddle at dances. I have this fiddle in my possession now.) There was no heat or air conditioning in this church. It was only in use for maybe a year after I moved to Arcadia."

"This church was in walking distance of my house. Only trees are located here now."
