Caption: Crawford United Methodist Church
Additional Description: The marker is located in front of the church. This was the site of the first Russell County Courthouse. After the county seat was moved to Seale in 1868 the courthouse building was demolished. The bricks from the demolished courthouse was used in the building of Sanctuary of the Methodist church standing here. The bricks were hand made by slaves from a brickyard in Columbus Georgia. Finger indentions from the slaves can be seen in some of the bricks.
