The Harrison area in the early 1800's was known as the Crooked Creek Community. It was into this valley where the Crooked Creek comes together that the early settlers came to bring their families and establish their village. Their faith in God prompted them to build a church to join together in praise and service to their Heavenly Father. It was on July 3, 1834 that the Crooked Creek Church was established. From their beginnings, as stated in their constitution they declared, "We believe in only one true and living God, the Father, The Word and the Holy Ghost." These settlers observed the Lord's supper together, baptisms, fasting and prayer and foot washings.
