Appleby Church HISTORIC - Appleby Church was founded in 1797. The building’s simple design shows the influence of the architecture used in Congregationalist churches of New England. The white frame structure features the typical dual front entry -- one door for men, the other for women. The door at the rear was reserved for slaves. The congregation remained segregated throughout all services. Today, the church is used only once a year, for special homecoming services - I-95/Exit 77 (St. George, Hwy 78 East), take Hwy. 15 South about five miles to SR19 (Wire Road). take a right, at jct. of SR 19 and SR 71
