J. H. Spencer, A History of Kentucky Baptists
Volume I



John Henderson Spencer
b. September 9, 1826 - d. December 21, 1897
     [In 1877].... The report of the Committee on Baptist History stated that J. H. Spencer had begun work on the history of Kentucky Baptists, but that it would be impossible for him to do the work without the cooperation of the brethren from every part of the State. The call was made that brethren everywhere collect and forward to Brother Spencer, "minutes of associations, history of churches, old files of periodicals, biographical sketches, and, in short, everything that contains any information concerning our denomination in the past." - Frank M. Masters
