a black church moved to where it is and behind lies graves unrelated to it and where whites buried ,this and graves are the reason I got back into photography ,this is now a museum built in 1908 ,the congregation is in a church not far away and it's called mt.Zion missionary baptist church irc.the church was built and donated by a white family in a town north .

ah that ,still,stands ,passed it earlier ,I have photos ,it's got a story,it was a house that was owned by a few types of farming persons ,citrus groves and banana trees and cattle ,this photo is the cattle era ,the current owner is a descendent of the paid serveant who inherited the home ,its pool,not visible was used for baptism and a type of church was here .not sure of the afilliatio. ,the home has two functional fire places and the rock garden is still intact with the fountain . built in 1920.I can imaginee the sounds of pilots learning to fly bombers near it ,the construction of new Dixie hwy ,the old black homesteads by it ,owners were white .a pig farm faced it

When you describe it I get pictures in my mind of what life may have been like for the different kind of farmers. Glad it is still standing. It looks well maintained.
Those two trees at the front, are they a kind of palm tree.

I am next to the pig farm
I am older then the pig farm
I am a former ranch /grove house
I,am owned by a sergeant who cleaned me windows and floors
I am the banana king
I am before the new us1
I am,not forgotten
I am able to remember the pig farm when it is gone
I am after a tourist court

I am full of joy
I am one whose pool is where persons where baptized
I am one who will tell you my story if you listen
I am tied to,two grove families

 

[jasonc]

Really good thanks Jason. When you know the history, take a photo and write about it you feel a connection to a place and even to the people who have lived there.

you would love Linda who did old churches and homes .

I should add ..
my owner got his lumber by train from fellsmere or east coast lumber in ft .pierce.

I am before the Dixie hwy project
I was built when the road call the Dixie was just a path in the woods

the dixie hwy ,old us1 where it is was a federal road project its original path was cleared in 1889 by a Mr Gifford and one other .

the east coast lumber built in 1908 irc is still in ft.pierce on the rr tracks and still has the spur for its lumber

I can't say for sure on this ,bricks were made on sight

 

[jasonc]

I will photo a close by wood frame church ,probably ww2 era ,I pass it to church
