This building could be a church, but this is similar schoolhouse design frequently seen throughout North Carolina.

Originally known as Baptist Church of Christ on Blounts Creek, this congregation started on May 28, 1808. The church has not been in use since the 1980s.

Built in 1921, this three-teacher type school is located in Beaufort County, North Carolina. It was in use until 1956 and now serves as a community center. It was put on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.

My assumption is that this church started out as your traditional center gable and tower seen in many rural areas. Later the church wrapped it in brick and added mid-century modern stained glass windows.

I am unable to locate any information on this church.

This is the stately plot of the Kenan family. Outside of the mausoleum, there are family members buried in the large circular plot. It is located in the Oakdale Cemetery. The winged cherub at the top of the mausoleum represents innocence.
