During the "religious awakening" years of 1840 - 1845, people in the county would congregate and camp together in order to worship and increase their knowledge of the word of God. One such place was on land owned by William Gilbert Rushing. In 1847, this land was donated by Gill Rushing and a log building was constructed by 28 members.

Notes for EMILY H. RUSHING:
"Died--At her father's residence, near Decaturville, Tennessee, October 1, 1875, Emily H., daughter of Bro. W. G. and sister Eliza Rushing; aged fifteen years, seven months, and nineteen days.
"Emily was not a member of the church, but an earnest seeker at the altar in August before she died in October; so, we trust, she now rest in peace with an older sister, Catherine, a consistent member of the Cumberland Presbyterian church, at Liberty, who accidentally shot herself the 4th of August, 1874. Also Mahaly, who died August 24, 1871, the youngest daughter of Brother Rushing, and the pet of the family. The writer had the pleasure of instructing them all in Sabbath-school; but little Emily, who outlived the others, was a very attentive student in the Sabbath-school room, and endeared herself to the hearts of her associates. They have left a large family of brothers and sisters who are very near all members of our Church, and a large circle of friends who sorely mourn their loss.
"Bro. Rushing is an elder of the Liberty congregation, and has battled long and hard for the cause of our blessed Master. Hold up your head, Brother and sister Rushing, you will soon cross the river, where the wicked cease from troubling, and the weary are at rest...." James M. Holley. Decaturville, January, 1876.

Notes for MARY BELLE MARTIN:
From an unnamed and undated article: 'Pioneer Recalls Trip to Texas - Nine-year-old Belle Martin still remembers how frightened she was when the big river steamer rounded the bend, black smoke boiling from the stack. It was going to take her to Texas, but she didn't want to leave Tennessee. Ninety years later, Miss Belle Martin reasons that it wasn't such a bad move after all. The sprightly, little Paris lady has lived to be a healthy 99 years old in Texas - and observes that 99th birthday with a quiet family observance at her Paris home next Tuesday. At 99, she is a remarkable citizen. The broken hip she suffered at 95 has mended, and she moves about with the support of a walker, often shoving it aside to maneuver on her own. The teeth she utilizes are her original ones. She wears glasses only to read. Her health is excellent. Miss Belle and her two sisters, Fannie and Ella, live in the Martin family home on 19th SW. For the past two years, they've had a housekeeper assist them. But until recently, the three ladies - Belle, to be 99; Ella, 87; and Fannie, 85 - looked after their own household chores. They tended an orchard and garden until six or seven years ago, and had their own cow and chickens until even more recently. The Martin family came to Texas in the 1870's. George Martin gathered his family for the steamboat trip from Decatur, TN, down the Tennessee to the Ohio and to the Mississippi - but the first sight of the steamboat, and the sound of its whistle - almost scattered them again. 'I was terrified,' recalls Miss Belle. 'The Captain shouted, 'All Aboard' and I thought he said we were all going to have to sit on a board. 'Later on, we found bales of peanuts on the boat, and found we could get at them. So we ate peanuts and threw the shells in the Mississippi all the way down to Missouri.' The Martins remained in Missouri a year, but moved on to Texas via covered wagon with two families. They stopped at what now is Ambia in Lamar County. 'The Sheriff, John Gose, took a liking to my dad and told us we could use his farm...' [The rest is missing.] *This article and a picture of the deceased are on file in the Genealogical Society of Northeast Texas Library, in the Taylor Collection, Box M. *On the same stone with Fannie and Ella Martin.
