Hi Robert,

Thanks for the reply. The only thing I would like to know about the
Primitive Bapt Church is something more than this.

All I know about the Church, and I was raised a southern Baptist, is that
they believe in Foot Washing, and do not believe in wearing make-up.

I assume that in other ways they are similar to the Southern Baptist
Church, except I do not know if they support missions.

My ancestors at least 4 generations back were Primitive Bapt. in TN and
in TX, and also in MS.

Thanks in advance, Mary Ross
