Description
Powelton Methodist Church is located in what was the village of Powelton, Georgia in Hancock County which was formed in 1795. Though not a lot of history is available the church was probably organized prior to 1800 as the Baptist church in Powelton was organized in 1786 and the community and the village is shown on most Georgia maps of the era and several of the graves in the cemetery date back to the early 1800s. The current building in this photo was built in 1830.
