The Kehukee Baptist Association(Submitted on April 29, 2023, by Michael Buckner of Durham, North Carolina.)was formed in the eighteenth century by Baptist churches in eastern North Carolina that had belonged to the Charleston Baptist Convention but decided, because of distance and divergent interests, to form their own association. The actual date of the formation is now accepted as 1769. These churches were initially considered Regular Baptist, but they gradually moved to a strong Calvinist position under the leadership of Lemuel Burkitt. The association grew to include all eastern North Carolina Baptists until around 1806.
