(continued from 1st page.) In his service at the head of Yad kin, he would be thrown as yoke fellow with Cleveland Coffee. Indeed the clerk of that old church which was organized about 1760 and was one of the constituent ebarches of the Lewis’s Fork Association, was Thomas Field, a family name plenti ful in Guilford county at this day. A neighboring church was soon organ ized at Catawba. Globe, Mulberry, Lower Creek and Yadkin were then in the bounds of Head of Yadkin, and these were probably the places visited by Elder McNeil at that early day. Mulberry Fields bears date 1777, Kings creek, 1779; Beaver creek, 1779; Three Forks, in Watauga, (1790;^’ove Creek, 1799; Globe, 1796, and the Mountain District Associa tion, in 1799. What a task it now is to take the tangles out of this long skein in which there is so much to say and such small compass to say it in. My paper for this article is al most exhausted, and we have left a thousand things unsaid. Another name among the pionetsrs of Wilkes, although not a Baptist, deserves a mention among those who were Baptists. This w’as Elder Jesse Lee, whose brother, John Lee, lived and died in the upper Yadkin coun try. It was in 1784, the year before the Methodist Episcopal church was fully (-rganized on this Continent. Elder Lee was one of its pioneers and a mighty man was he. His Salisbury circuit then extended as far as col. Heo^rsas on the Yadkin River. During the month of February 1785, Mr. Asbury was passing this way on his route to Charleston, and turned aside to preach for Elder Lee at his appointment at Col. Hendren’s. Lee attended, delighted to see him as he had not met him since his appoint ment to the honors of Bishop. He was, however, much mortified as well as surprised when Asbury ap peared before the congregation as sembled at the Colonel’s in full ca nonicals—black gown, cassock, and band. But elder Lee survived it, so did col. Heaven. This illustrious Christian man had a ministry to the bounds of our pioneer settlements, and did great good. I notice the following Welch names found among our ancestry and their visitors of the Lewis’s Pork, viz.: The Powells, the Joneses, thf* Thomases, the Owens, the Penrys, the Evanses, Ihe Williamses, the Griffirtes; and among the Irish there are the Bakers, Edwards and Fergn- sons. Other Scotch names occur as the Carmichaels, the Greggs, the Craigs and the Douglases; and I have them all alhng—some are Baptists now and some are not, and some of them never were. W. H, E.
