Editor’s Note: The Milton Baptist Church was located on the East Fork of the Indian Kentuck Creek in Milton Twp., roughly two miles north of Manville. It had two periods of operation: 1829-1836 and 1840 to 1883. Aaron and Sarah Hankins sold the trustees land for the church, containing 63 rods in the NW1/4 Section 11 Twp. 4N Range 11E. on Oct. 8, 1844. The trustees at the time were Henry Hall, Jonathan D. Hall and Joseph Hankins (Jefferson Co. Deed Book W p. 96.) Aaron and Sarah deeded the Hankins graveyard, .66 acre in the same section, for use as a church cemetery on March 18, 1871 (Jefferson Co. Deed Book 36 p. 380.)
