Abstract:
Asplaugh refers to the historic home of Reverend John Alspaugh who founded Methodism in Forsyth County. He purchased a 230 acre plantation from neighboring Moravians in 1837 and finished his home in 1839. In 1942 the home still stood along the banks of Muddy Creek on the outskirts of Winston-Salem. Reverend Alspaugh was responsible for establishing several churches in the Winston-Salem area including the notable Centenary Church.
