Archibald, Eloisa Patton and Mrs. Mary S. Patton, whose husband donated land for church. The Rev. John Limber presided. By 1873 had 102 members and 88 children in Sunday School, but congregation declined after railroad came through Mexia in 1870s, causing many people to move there. Discontinued in 1899.
