The History of Hancock County, Georgia by Elizabeth Wiley Smith. 2 volumes. Wilkes Publishing Company, Inc. Washington, GA, Jan 1974
Volume I, page 29

"Historical Facts from Records of Horeb Church, and from Old Resident, Covering Mayfield Proper and Surrounding Community. June 28, 1792, Fulson Creek Church (now Horeb Church)

Fulson Creek Church, now Horeb Church was constituted by Jeptha Vining and Adam Jones, Ministers with William West, Frederick Ledbettar and Cornelius Whittington as Helps. At the first conference Jacob Bankston was chosen Elder and Joseph Howell, Deacon. The site on which the church was built, near Fulsom Creek, was given by Robert Day, and is now owned by the estate of A. L. Reynolds.(as of 1934) A house was built to receive corn and cotton, which was sold and the proceeds paid to the pastor. Corn sold for 4 shillings, 8 pence per barrel."

There is a list of early members. If you will give me the time period I will search for the names.
