Brandon Chapel School October 2, 1911
Brandon Chapel is located on Road No. 112 about four miles north of Eddyville Ferry and Highway 58. The Brandon Chapel Methodist Church and School were located on the same lot donated by B. F. Smith. The Church was established in 1894 and possibly the school was established before this. The picture (below) indicates this is a reunion in October of 1894.
Gov. Keen Johnson was born at Brandon Chapel parsonage in 1896. Rev. Johnson served the Methodist Churches of Pisgah, Sardis, Brandon Chapel and Woodson Chapel.
