John C. Carmical was a Baptist preacher in the Rockcastle area for many years.
He was born about 1838 and died in 1906 (I think).
He pastored at both
Line Creek Baptist
Church and
Mount Pisgah Baptist
Church.
There was an interesting note in the
Rockcastle Baptist
Association minutes, which read: "Pleasant Valley
church failed to send any letter or messenger to our last annual meeting, so we
employed Elder J.C. Carmical to go there and hold a meeting of eleven days
which resulted in 19 additions, 15 by experience and baptism, 4 by letter and
the church greatly revived. Collected there $4.25 and we paid $6.75--amount,
$11.00."
Thanks to Timothy Carmical for the photo.
