Abstract:

The 200th anniversary celebration of Black River Chapel will take place June 2. The church is located one mile from Ivanhoe, Sampson County. Black River Chapel is one of the outstanding historic edifices in the state. It was the cradles of Presbyterianism in eastern North Carolina and the center and rallying place for culture and evangelism for that territory drained by the waters of Colvin's Creek, Moore's Creek, and Black River.
