Lanark.
Organized 1843, by Garner Moffett; present membership, 122 , value of
property, $10,000, Bible-school enrollment, 120.
Cherry Grove was five miles northeast of the site of Lanark. Into this
place Garner Moffett, David Tripp, William Renner, Thomas and Abraham
Moffett, with their families, came in 1840, and a little later David
Miller, Emanuel Stover, William Hawk and the McCoy family. Some of these
were from Virginia and others from Ohio. Min. Henry Howe preached in this
settlement at that time, as did also J. M. Yearnshaw. After the church
was formed, it authorized Garner Moffett and David Tripp to preach.
Residences and schoolhouses were used for public worship till 1858, when
a chapel was built at Stovertown. When the railway was built in 1861,
Lanark was started and the chapel moved there. In 1879 a new house was
built. This gave place to the present elegant structure in 1907.
