IMPORTANT DATES AND EVENTS IN THE TWO HUNDRED YEARS OF THE LIFE OF STEELE CREEK CHURCH
1775 (May 20) In Sweet's book Religion of the American Frontier appears: "The first voice raised in America to dissolve all connection with Great Britain came, not from the Puritans of New England; not from the Dutch of New York; not from the planters of Virginia; but from the Scotch Presbyterians of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. When Mecklenburg patriots assembled in Charlotte on May 19, 1775, to express their grievances against England, one-third of the twenty-seven dele- gates were ruling elders in the various Presbyte- rian Churches in the county." General Robert Irwin and Zaccheus Wilson, ruling elders in Steele Creek Church, were signers of the Mecklenburg Declaration.
1788 (Nov. 5) 1790-1800
Pastor McRee and General Robert Irwin, elder, attended organizational meeting of the Synod of the Carolinas at Centre Church.
Introduction of Watts Psalms and Hymns by the Reverend McRee resulted in organization of Lower Steele Creek (Blackstock, ARP Synod) and withdrawal of a segment of the congrega- tion in 1800 into Little Steele Creek (Associate Synod). Both now united into Central Steele Creek Church.

Watts the first Deacons were elected - S. Jefferson Berryhill, John L. Jamison, Alexander S. Sadler, William M. Porter, Robert McDowell. The Reverend Daniel Baker, the great revivalist, concluded a meeting at Steele Creek Church. Writing from a sick-bed August 31 to his wife he adds: "I hear the sound of carriage wheels mov- ing toward the church, so I must abruptly close." In a letter to his daughter dated September 1, he writes: "Yesterday with some intermissions I was preaching, as usual, from 10 to four o'clock."
