Excerpt from A History of the Liberty Baptist Association: From Its Organization in 1832 to 1906; Containing Much History Incidentally Connected With This Body Twenty-five years ago, or more, I began, in a purposeless way, to collect historical data relating to the Baptists in this immediate section of the State. As I proceeded, I found that a love of such work was growing upon me and from year to year I was adding to my stock of material. Then it was decided to leave no stone unturned until everything available in our part of the State was found and secured. Having found and examined every old record that might be laid under tribute, the author now believes that he has a grasp on almost everything relating to the Baptists in the section covered by the Association and surrounding country. In getting all relating to the Association it was found that there was much matter possessing general interest, incident ally connected with our Associational history. This it was believed would be welcomed by the reader. One thing kept constantly in view was to be historically correct in every statement, so far as possible.
