Site of Old North Church
First known as Union Church as several denominations joined here to worship as early as 1836. Organized in 1838. A small log church was completed that year on ten acres donated by Dr. John M. Sparks. The present structure dates from 1859. In its graveyard rest many of the leading Anglo-American settlers of Nacogdoches County.
Marker is on County Road 205 south of County Road 202, on the left when traveling east.
