My Paternal G Grandfather was the Methodist Circuit Rider for a part of S.E. Georgia. In his later years he converted to a Southern Baptist. His Son, my Granddaddy was also a Southern Baptist. He attended Southern Baptist Seminary in Louisville.

My Mother’s family were also Southern Baptist tho I think they were at first Pentecostal.
