According to Goodspeed's 1886 HIstory of Marshall Co., TN: "The pioneer Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Marshall County is Bear Creek Church, near Mooresville. This church was organized in 1814 by Rev. Samel King. This was soon after the separation of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church from the Primitive Baptist Church. The first house erected was a log building. The present brick building was erected about 1860. This is one of the strongest congregations in the county. It now numbers about 240 members. "
