First Baptist Church (Trenton, Florida)

The old First Baptist Church, founded in 1884, is a church building located on East Wade Street at Northeast 2nd Street in Trenton, Gilchrist County, Florida. It was built with a raised main floor so that its basement could have full size above ground windows. The church plant has been expanded behind it to the north and to the east. Today it is no longer the primary building for the active congregation.[1]
