Second African Baptist Church was founded in 1802 with Henry Cunningham as pastor. First and Second African Baptist Churches are historically important for having trained more Black preachers than any other early churches. At this church, General William T. Sherman made his famous Forty Acres and a Mule promise to the newly freed slaves
