Constituted in 1839 and part of the Lotts Creek Association, Lower Black Creek Primitive Baptist is one of the most historic churches in Bryan County. The congregation has dwindled to just two members. Deacon Gene Bryant is attempting to get a historical marker for the church and he organizes a reunion of member families each year. The cemetery at Lower Black Creek is one of the largest I’ve seen in quite some time.
