Your gift supports the preservation of this historic church.&nbsp;Located in Clinton, AL, the building stands today much as it did when it was originally built. The flooring is of old wide-board, heart-pine wood with original pews made of solid pine boards. The gallery is unique in that it is a U-shaped structure built across the back and along each side of the interior. Adjacent to the church is a cemetery that has served the Clinton community since its beginning. It is believed to be the third oldest cemetery in the county with a large number of Confederate soldiers buried at the site. Graves of colonial era settlers, British citizens, and Revolutionary War veterans have been found. The earliest birthdate of persons buried in the cemetery is 1755, twenty years prior to the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Unfortunately, one of the sill girder beams supporting the left wall has rotted endangering the structural integrity of the building. &nbsp;As a result, the floor along that side of the church has dropped almost 4 inches.&nbsp; <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1781884478/wysiwyg/wjjkvpszd9fanxicvrrt.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1781885335/wysiwyg/mjzmf70a2mqhihtdhjdo.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> 100% of donations through this form will go directly to preservation work on this important historical building.
