Alderson, Lewis Allen, 1812-1881

Alderson, Lewis Allen, 1812-1881

 
Alderson was born in what is now Greenbrier County, West Virginia, and graduated from Ohio University in Athens in 1832. His 25 years of ministry in and around Appalachia included organizing Sunday schools throughout eastern Virginia and serving three terms as pastor of the Greenbrier Baptist Church in Alderson (1834-37, 1839-40, and 1847-50). He moved to Kansas in 1858, where he remained until his death in 1881.

Additional information can be found in a biographical sketch, written by his son Joseph, in Souvenir of the 125th Anniversary of the Greenbrier Baptist Church, ed. J. W. Morgan (Huntington, WV: Swan Printing and Stationery Co., 1906).

    Alderson User Guide

    Robert H. Ellison

    The User Guide for the Library of Appalachian Preaching is a Google Sheet that can be searched, sorted, and downloaded for offline use.

    At the moment, Alderson has only one sermon in the Library; it has a Guide of its own so the records will be complete. It includes the title, sermon text, date and place the sermon was preached, and so on. This information is available in the master list of sermons as well.
