CHURCHES:

COOPER'S RUN (COWPER'S RUN)(1787)

Cooper's Run Church, near Paris, was organized in 1787, by Elders Augustine Eastin and James Garrard (who later become Governor of Kentucky), with less than twenty members, and united with the Elkhorn Association the same year. Five of the original members were killed by Indians during the first year of its existence. Elder Augustine Eastin appears to have been the first and only pastor of this church.
