Churches in Huntsville, AL
When the Civil War ended, there were over 200, 000 people of African descent who considered themselves members of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. After the emancipation from slavery, having control over their own church became important to many of these freed persons. A movement was inaugurated within the Methodist church to provide the Blacks a separate and independent organization. With the assistance of the bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, a group of forty-one leaders gathered in Jackson, Tennessee, and formally established the colored branch of Methodism.
