Olive Branch Christian Church
This church was built in 1835 on land granted to Leonard Henley in 1661, and is one of the oldest churches of the Disciples of Christ in this part of the State. In 1862-65, it was occupied by Union soldiers; with that exception the church has been continuously in use since its erection.
