Mill Creek Baptist Church, mother church of Southern Baptists in Davidson County, occupied two meeting houses at this site from 1797 until the early 20th Century. Here, in 1833, Baptists formed the first Tennessee Baptist Convention. The church’s graveyard includes the graves of many early settlers of both African and European descent.
