HYDE COUNTY, NC CHURCHES

Below are listed Hyde County churches of all denominations, past and present. This is not a definitive list. We need your help in compiling information on all of these churches. Please contribute what materials you have on the church histories, pastors, congregations, photos, etc., and send your information to me for inclusion in this table.

This table of churches was kindly submitted by Margie Brooks who has been working on this, off and on, for 10 years.  Unless otherwise noted, Margie and Ed Garrison took all of the photographs.  Please note: The classification of churches as black and/or white has been done only to aid the reader in their research. In no way is this meant to indicate that any of the current Hyde County churches do not welcome all persons to worship with them.

Note:  The Methodist Episcopal Church, South resulted from the split between the Southern and Northern branches of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the United States before the Civil War. They reunited in 1939 as The Methodist Church, now named The United Methodist Church.
