This Pleasant Hill Cumberland Presbyterian Church was located on a hill across the road from the J. T. Anderson home, about two miles below Hurricane Mills. It is not known just when this congregation was formed, but records of infant baptism date as far back as 1892 or 1893. This was the second house and location of the church, as the first one was located near the present home of Steve N. Page and was a log house, containing only windows with shutters and was used at the same time as a school house. Records of baptism show that numerous people were members of this church as early as 1866.

The following were listed under "Infant Baptism" by J. L. Stockard July 30, 1893.
