Poplar Run Baptist Church

Thanks to our cousin, Marie Nelson, we have a brief history of Poplar Run Baptist Church, as follows:

This information was gleaned from several documents that relate to the early history of Baptist in Fleming County.

An entry in the Fleming County Deed Book A-I, June 12, 1798 says:

“Lewis Craig was appointed as an assignee of Major John Mosby, heir of Virginia.  Craig and Johnston, assignees of Simon Kenton.  Whereby, he received: 25/60th of 30,000 acres of land in Fleming County on the waters of the "Licking River, Fleming Creek, Locust Creek, Fox Creek, POPLAR CREEK, and other places in the county.”

The Poplar Run Church sent messengers to the Association meeting with the Licking-Locust Church in September, 1814.  The messengers were Daniel Moss, John Lee and Jacob Cord.  There were 30 members reported.

The ground and building of Poplar Run was deeded to George Bishop, Henry Bishop, John Lee and William Metcalf, trustees of Poplar Run, by Peter and Deborah Johnson.  The land contained one acre, 2 rods and 4 poles, on October 6, 1828.

The Poplar Run Church continued until 1868, when the remaining members united with the Flemingsburg Church.  In the year 1817 at the start of the Big Revivals, there were 45 baptisms and 73 members;  in 1818 the church had 10 baptisms and 85 members;  in 1820, 19 baptisms and 101 members;  in 1821, 8 baptisms and 111 members;  in 1822, 107 members;  in 1823, 107 members;  in 1828, 188 members and 114 baptisms;  in 1833, 97 members and in 1835, 75 members and 16 baptisms.

Members of the Poplar Run Church in September, 1814, Daniel Moss, John Lee, Jacob Cord, John Shockey; in 1817, George Bishop;  in 1819,J.F. L. & Peter Johnson;  in 1821, J.C. Lee;  in 1828, J. W. Dimitt and J. G. Bishop and H. Bishop;  in 1829, Truman Day and F. Hurst;  in 1833, Thomas Caywood, Theophilus Doyle;  in 1835, William Metcalf and J. F. Stockdale;  in 1842. Elias Biddle, Robert Parish, T. O. Caywood.

In 1852 and 1853 there were no messengers from Poplar Run to the Association.  In 1854 they sent E. Biddle and J. Hunt.  In 1856 they sent Steve Biddle and Thomas Barton.

Around 1828 when Alexander Campbell came to Kentucky, preaching the Doctrine of Unionblisticism, which raised havoc with the churches, causing divisions and splits.  Mr. Campbell had hoped to unite all the denominations into one. Instead, he succeeded in helping to establish another one.  Only Poplar Run and Bethel weathered the storm and continued until the Civil War.

In 1868 Poplar Run moved into the membership of Flemingsburg Church and turned over $347.00 to the Flemingsburg Church.  A. T. McDonald was instructed to use the money belonging to Poplar Run, and that this church was to return the same when and if called for.  In August, 1868, a Nancy Moss was received from the Poplar Run Church into Flemingsburg by letter.

The Kentucky Genealogical Society published a short history of the church and cemetery in the Summer 1990 issue of Bluegrass Roots:  

Poplar Run Church was organized in Fleming County, Kentucky some time before 1828.  On that date, Peter Johnson deed to "the trustees of Poplar Run Meeting House a parcel of land on which the Meeting House now stands."  The parcel contained one acre, two roods [sic], and four poles, and was described as being on the waters of Poplar Run.

This is the only deed that could be found concerning the property, and it does not tell which denomination(s) used the "Meeting House."

The Cemetery is located near Kentucky Highway 32 about mid-way between Cowan and Elizaville.  The incline beside the Cemetery leading down to Poplar Run Creek [sic] is known locally as "Tanyard Hill" because in early days there was a tanyard located at the foot of the hill.

The Meeting House has long since disappeared.  There is a fieldstone wall aroung [sic] the Cemetery, which is overgrown with periwinkle and bushes.  Size of the enclosure is 400 by 200 feet [just under two acres].

The trustees of the Meeting House who received the deed were:  George Bishop, Henry Bishop, John Lee, Senr. and William Metcalfe.

A list of stones in the cemetery was made by Mr. and Mrs. Gerald K. Prestel, 6118 - 112th Street SW Apt 46, Tacoma, Washington 98499.  Their report is filed in the Fleming County Courthouse at Flemingsburg.  They provided some information about the Bishop family and some of the relationships of those buried there.

The list published here is based on the one made by Mr. and Mrs. Prestel.  Some names have been added from a reading made by Enos Hinton of Flemingsburg who is working on a county-wide cemetery list to be computerized.

In addition to the names listed, there were other stones too deteriorated to read and some burials represented by field stones.
