Murray County Heritage Assorted information regarding the Summerhour Methodist Episcopal Church South compiled by The Murray County Historical Committee, 1987 [BOK 156]
Page 294
"Land was granted to the Summerour Methodist Episcopal Church South by Franklin Summerour on March 10, 1869. Trustees were Robert McCamy, Charles Adair, James McCamy, R. R. Bates and Mr. Summerour. This was on the east side of the old turnpike road which went by the already existing church..."

There was a second deed granted to the Summerour Methodist Episcopal Church South in 1895, for land on which the present church building now stands...

On November 18, 1957 a storm struck the Crandall area and the church was moved off its foundation. The building originally faced south but when it was repaired after the storm it was turned to face the west.

Found in the debris of the storm-damaged building in 1957 by D.O. Baxter was a wooden corner plaque 12" square. On careful examination it was revealed to be a corner plaque placed in the church tower. It contained the names of each of the members of the building committee and was signed in lead pencil in their own handwriting.
