The Old Baptist Church on the Dry Ridge

Conrad Lane, Williamstown, Ky.

Though there is only a cemetery that marks this historical site, this location was the original site of the Old Baptist Church on the Dry Ridge, which was organized in 1791.  The Church chose to meet at this location because of its vicinity to Campbell’s Block House, a trading post used by the namesake of Campbell County, Kentucky, John Campbell.
