Paces Ferry UMC Saved
Neighbors living around Paces Ferry United Methodist Church, led by Ham Powell, have acquired the historic 1877 church. They envision it as a place for Bible study and learning.
As you may recall, the Methodist Church listed the property for sale, but potential uses were fortunately limited due to the lot size and zoning restrictions.
This is a significant preservation victory, and Buckhead Heritage wants to extend all our heartfelt thanks to all of you for your ongoing efforts. Our advocacy and involvement in raising awareness about the fate of this historic site undoubtedly played a role in its preservation.

ABOUT YOUR ORGANIZATION
The Buckhead Heritage Society is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization that was founded in 2006 by a group of Buckhead residents who recognized the need for an advocacy organization to protect Buckhead’s significant historic resources. As Buckhead surges into the 21st century, many of its stories, documents, buildings, cemeteries, and other historic resources are at risk of being lost.
From our Founding Members whose capital contributions have seeded our efforts, to our Board Members who oversee our Mission, to our Executive Director and staff who implement our programs, Buckhead Heritage Society is a group of individuals with a collective passion for Buckhead history and Buckhead preservation.
We recognize the importance of identifying, preserving, restoring, and promoting the community’s historic resources for the benefit of future generations. We hope you will join us on our mission.
