St. Bridget’s Catholic Church, 1902, Alapaha

From the history, “Diocese of Savannah: 1850-2000″:
“A Catholic community established a church on the James C. Murray farm 2.6 miles from Alapaha in about 1840…The Catholic community was then known as Saint Patrick’s and was commonly called “Murray Church.” [As the need grew for a more substantial church than the log cabin located on the Murray farm] land was purchased near Alapaha Station in 1901 for the token sum of $25 from John J. Paulk…the new church, Saint Bridget’s, was completed in 1902…[by 1942, this structure was vacated and the present St. Ann's Catholic Church built]
This is now home to Greater Macedonia C. M. E. Church, and is undergoing renovation.
