Our North Carolina Community Contributors collections have expanded to include materials from First Presbyterian Church of Mount Holly. This batch includes several types of items relaying the history of the church and the broader community, including bulletins, photos of church leaders, guest books with lists of visitors, and short histories of the church. These materials span most of the history of First Presbyterian, beginning around 1890 and carrying through the present day (c. 2017).
In addition to providing information about the church’s history and participation in the Mount Holly community, this collection of bulletins may prove useful for genealogists interested in the Gaston County area. The bulletins frequently list a directory of church staff, including Sunday School teachers, fellows, and scouts. Weekly activity leaders and other members of the congregation are frequently listed as well.
You can browse all of the materials in this batch here or by navigating to the First Presbyterian Church of Mount Holly digital exhibit. You can also explore all of our collections from North Carolina Community Contributors here.
