Ben Salem Presbyterian Church.  I discovered this one recently.  It is located in Rockbridge County outside Lexington off Rt. 60. It was founded in 1832.

In my Archibald Alexander descendants transcript, there was a reference to Ben-Salem Church.  Specifically, a couple of the Paxtons lived on a farm near Ben-Salem Church.  I asked my cousin if he knew where it was, and he didn't.  So I did a little research and found it. It's a very small church but really cute.  I didn't see a cemetery nearby and I don't know if any of my relatives attended this church.
