Euharlee Primitive Baptist Association Minutes
Submitted by

     The clerks of the association, especially in the early years, used initials instead of full names. I have added the names of some of the people I knew or have researched and sometimes added other information inside parentheses.
     I have left the spelling the way it was printed even where I thought it was incorrect.
