Mt. Olive Ev. Lutheran Church and School

Located approximately 3 miles south of Hybart, Al

A decaying reminder of the remnants of one of the last standing Alabama Black Church/ Schools in Monroe County Al. There were at one time three of these School/Churches located in North Monroe County Al. This one, One North of Vredenburgh which could have actually been in the very Southern edge of Wilcox County and one North of Buena vista on th road from Buena Vista to Chestnut. At the beginning of the School year 1966 a New Church/School was built on the South Side of Vredenburgh, Al and all three were combined into one school there.

I do not know the source of this photo. It appears to be taken in the 1940’s.
