Photographer: Michael Stroud
Taken: June 2006
Caption: Ruins Of Old Sheldon
Additional Description: Today, all that stands of the old church are four brick columns and four exterior brick walls containing arched windows and doors. It stands as a true testament to the hardships and warfare that this state has experienced over its 300-year history. The cemetery contains the graves of those brave men who stood for freedom and independence, as well as many others who later followed their example. Several of the tombstones date to before 1700, making them some of the oldest in the state.
