Research notes on African American Baptists compiled by Faybert Martin, 1930s
This bound volume of typescript notes gleaned from published sources was compiled by Faybert Martin (and Hampton King?) during the 1930s. The title on the book spine is "The Baptist Church and the Negro." Also based on spine imprinting, this work is associated with the YMCA Graduate School in Nashville, Tennessee. Inside the front cover is a manuscript note "From Dr. W. D. Weatherford's library." The volume compiles references to African American Baptists during the period 1790 - 1854.
