The South Dalton Baptist church was founded in 1915.
This church was formerly
a small mission school organized by E. F. Hamilton, and H. L. McEntyre and
called Elk City Mission School. The first meetings were held in a store house.
After securing a charter, the Reverend J. A. Boyd was appointed pastor. After a
revival conducted by Reverend W. E. Roberts and Reverend J. 0. Dantzler in 1930,
one hundred and forty new members were added to the church. Mr. C. A. Payne was
the chief instigator of a plan for a new church building. This
building contains a main auditorium and three Sunday school rooms with a seating
capacity of six hundred and twenty-five. The following men have served as
pastors since its organization: Reverend J. A. Boyd, Reverend Morris, Reverend
Charles Maples, Reverend Hogan, Reverend Mealor, Reverend Thornton, Reverend J.
H. Cargal, Reverend S. P. Chitwood and Reverend W. E. Roberts.
