Posted with an urgent plea for someone to share a photo of this church before Corps came and tore it away for a lake which never gets high enough to put old Knifley in danger. -EW By JIM From the NEWS, October 25, 1921 The dedication of the Christian Church at Knifley, Ky., this county, will take place Sunday, October 30th, 1921 at 11 a.m. The people of that community are very proud of their new house of worship having spent the amount of three thousand dollars. It is a credit to the congregation and the community. Rev. W.G. Montgomery of Somerset, Ky., will preach the dedicatory sermon, and great crowds are expected to be on hand. Everybody is requested to bring lunch with them, and an all day celebration is to be enjoyed. Followup article in the November 1st edition: A large crowd attended the dedication of the new Christian church, Knifley, last Sunday. The dedicatory sermon was preached by Eld. W.G. Montgomery. It was delivered oratorically and was highly appreciated. There was an abundance of dinner on the ground. It is also said there were more people in Knifley than ever before known.
