Synopsis
Excerpt from Dutch Buffalo Creek Meeting House, 1745-1806: Bethel Bear Creek, United Church of Christ, 1806-1974
The dutch buffalo creek church, or the dutch buffalo meeting house - known by either name, was possibly the first German Reformed and German Lutheran church to be established in the Piedmont section of North Carolina. Facts indicate that it was established early in the decade of 1740. Not only was it possibly the first German Reformed and Lutheran congregation to be established in this area, but it was one of the first churches to be established by our ancestors as they settled here. Although it has been relocated and rebuilt several times, it ceased to be a union congregation after about thirty years. It has been in continuous existence since its beginning. It is the mother church from which two of our prominent congregations of today have come, namely, Bethel German Reformed Church, Stanly Gaunty, (now of the United Church of Christ, and commonly referred to as Bear Creek and St. John's Evangelical Lutheran Church, Cabarrus County.

This book details the fascinating history of a church that was established by German immigrants in the Piedmont region of North Carolina in the early 18th century.
