Book excerpt: Excerpt from Salem, a Goodly Heritage, 1848-1976: The History of Salem United Methodist Church Mrs. Edwards has displayed the perseverance required of all who do definitive research to gather much where so little is readily available. She has searched for old church records in churches nearby and discovered some valuable material of historic significance. Tracing the development of the early circuits in North Carolina, she has shown the evolution of these circuits as they grew large and divided, spreading Methodism westward to ward the Cape Fear River out of Sampson and Duplin Counties. She has proved that the Salem Church was older than many people realized, having had roots in an early meeting house long for gotten in this modern age. One of the most significant effects this history will have is that Mrs. Edwards has now preserved the past for the benefit of the future. Generations to come will be able to trace their beginnings back to a day when life was simple and experiences were meaningful and find enrichment for their daily living. The work will also be a source of program material for organizations to draw from to celebrate their future anniversaries.
