This list began with WPA Church record inventories in Allendale listed in Côté (Local and Family History in South Carolina, Richard N. Côté, Easley, SC: So. Hist. Press, 1981, 498 pages).  It has been augmented by many.  If you have additions, histories, descriptions, contacts, and cemetery inventories, please send them for inclusion.

Côté identified the predominatly African American churchs with the designation "negro" which I have removed because someone objected to the nomenclature.  If you are of African American descent, I would appreciate it if you would send me comments on this issue.   Should I change published text to fit the current vernacular?  I have left books with their original language.

Allendale County Cemeteries including private cemeteries not listed above.

Please Email any additions, errors, corrections, or suggestions to the webmeister.

Thanks to everyone who has contributed these.  Truly we are blessed in Allendale in having these histories recorded, and in all of you who have gone to the trouble to see that they are posted on the web site.  Thank you!
