Our History:
The first group of Methodists inBakersville was organized in 1871 &
they called themselves “The Bakersville Missionary Society.” This group met in
an old log dwelling place located on Main Street in Bakersville on property where the home of Dr. A.E. Gouge is now located. They met at this location
under the name of “The Bakersville Missionary Society” until sometime
around 1879 when a church building was constructed on the old Rorison
property.
In 1881, the congregation occupied its new building and became “The
Bakersville Station Methodist Episcopal South.”
In the flood of 1901, it was washed away & another church was built on the
same property which served the congregation until 1929 when the need for a new building arose in 1929 it was built on Mitchell Ave., which is now used by the congregation. The membership
has come from many former Methodist Churches in the area, as a result we
became the Bakersville United Methodist Church.
