Gift shop had special plate made for countyThe weather was too cool early in the morning to do yard work at our cabin in Tattnall County, so Gene and I drove the short distance to Reidsville as there were many cancer relay for life yard sales being held. We stopped in front of a majestic old home with the wrap around porch, tin roof and fancy woodwork trimming the edge of the porch. Several tables were set up and filled with varied objects.

United Methodist Church mirror's city historyWhen the town of Hinesville was laid out in 1837, a plot was reserved for the Methodist Church. This site was adjacent to the courthouse, where Bradwell Park is now. A small frame building was erected on the lot, and it was there that religious life in Hinesville began to grow.
