2. Churches of Indian-Kentuck Region, By Robert W. Scott© 1999
Cross Plains Baptist Church (Brown Twp., Ripley Co.) The Cross Plains Baptist Church was founded May 18, 1843 when ten men and eleven women joined and associated with the Laughery Baptist Association. The History of Switzerland Co. (p. 1162) reports that Cross Plains grew out of Brushy Fork Baptist Church, which also produced Cross Plains' first minister, the Rev. Robert Stevenson who was ordained at Brushy Fork and who preached in so many churches in Southeastern Indiana. At this point, Stevenson had not yet been ordained.
The action is reflected in the Brushy Fork minutes of the third Saturday in April 1843 which report that "the church granted Several members of dismission namely, Augustus Lathrop and wife, Henry Reed and wife and Samuel Reed and wife and Gerua D. Grover. Second the church has agreed to send six of her members to the Cross planes to aid in Constituting of a church namely John Mathis, John Christie, Robert Stevenson, Alfred Miles, Joseph Voyles, Wm Wicuff."

I am descended from William Bassett and Margaret McQuiddy thru their son Thomas (m. Mary Jackson) and his son Stephen (m. Eliza Sebring). Stephen and Eliza are my great great grand parents. Their daughter Lucinda m. John M. Fleming and their son Jess was my grandfather. I am interested in any information you have or any connections you have regarding this line. I am also interested in the light blue eyes you mentioned. My son and 4 of my grand children (his children) have the most amazing light blue eyes. I have recently discovered that one of my brothers also had them. We never understood where they came from. Ever since my son was born 30 years ago, I have had people remark on his eyes (and for the last 8 years on his children's) and how unusual they seem to be. Thank you for any help you can be.
