Mike Cave on Wednesday, March 17, 1999
I have the original church register for Center Ridge Church of Christ with entry names dating in the late 1800's.
Is this church still in existence? I am thinking it was located near Maude, Texas, because my great grandparents were
members and they lived near there at the time.
