Description:... "Bethel Baptist Church, 1806, was the first permanent Protestant Church to be established west of the Mississippi. Its records are of special significance and interest in that they throw much light on the religious life, customs and conditions incident to pioneer times in early Missouri."--Preface, signed by A.
