History: The exact date that the first church building, known as Brown Marsh Church, is unknown, but it was dedicated Dec. 13, 1828 and is still standing. In 1871, the church moved to what is now Clarkton Cemetery. The Brown Marsh congregation renamed the church to Clarkton Presbyterian in 1886.
The present day church building was completed in 1911. The bell from the 1871 church now hangs in the belfry and is used as a call to worship each Sunday morning.
