Description

Excerpt from Weaverville United Methodist Church, Weaverville, N. C: Organized 1805; A History Soon after the Revolution there was established on the Holston River near the present town of Elizabethton, Tennessee, what was called the Western District of the Methodist Church in America. From it one of the first circuits was the French Broad Circuit. The preachers travelled on horseback over the first road built connecting Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina. This was the old Warm Springs Road. Later the name was changed to Hot Springs, where springs of a higher temperature were found. This road came through what is now Lake Louise and was within 3 or 4 minutes ride of our Camp Ground. Since the preachers of that early date had no established places to preach, they spoke wherever folks were gathered. It is reasonable to believe that after the Camp Ground was formed about 1810, that most of those assigned to the French Broad Circuit preached there. After the meeting house was built in 1835, it was a regular stopping place. Bishop Francis Asbury, the first bishop of the Methodist Church in America, tells in his Journal of travelling the Warm Springs Road and resting overnight at the home of pioneer John Weaver. From this close association, no doubt, the family changed from the faith of a Presbyterian to that of a Methodist. John's sons.
