When my family lived in adair county we went to church there. My parents always took us to church. We don't get to go there very often any more.We have grown up and moved away from Adair County. We live in Glasgow, KY, now. We still have lots of family and friends there. A lot of them have already passed on and are buried in the Bragg Cemetery out from the back of the church. My parents, Lewis and May Bennett are buried there. I enjoy the ColumbiaMagazine very much. I was glad to see the Prices Creek Baptist church on it. Keep up the good work. s/Donald Bennett Glasgow ky. 2010-04-02 12:44:36 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
