Ancestry.com. A History of Methodism in Alabama . Provo, UT. MyFamily.com, Inc.. 2004. A History of Methodism in Alabama. West, Anson,. Nashville, Tenn.. Printed for the author, Pub. house, Methodist Episcopal Church South. 1893.

“At the session of the Alabama Conference beginning Jan. 26, and closing Feb. 3, 1848, the Rev. Nehemiah A. Cravens and the Rev. Otis Sexton were appointed to the Cahawba Circuit. The town of Cahawba, at the confluence of the Alabama and Cahawba Rivers was then one of the appointments of that Circuit, and there was then only one house of worship at the place. a house built by the contributions of the citizens. and occupied in common by all the denominations. At that date there were not a dozen Methodists at Cahawba, though the town had existed more than a quarter of a century. Mr. Jacob Hoot and Mrs. Catharine Hoot, husband and wife, Mr. John Gwin and Mrs. Jane Gwin, husband and wife, Mr. Joseph E. Luker and Mrs. Luker, .....are all that can now be named as Methodists in that town at that time.”

...Mrs. Luker, and Mrs. Brush were women of marked piety, and extensive work of grace had in 1848 was traceable to a prayer meeting held by those true and godly women. p. 668
