County Line Baptist Church

County Line Baptist Church is a historic Southern Baptist church east of Dudleyville, Alabama. The church was first organized on May 2, 1835, in the frontier home of William C. Morgan. Morgan purchased the two-acre site from Creek Indians and contributed it to the church.[3] The current church building on the site was built in 1890, and has been in continuous use and remained virtually unaltered since its construction.
