Vandalia Baptist Association
The Vandalia Baptist Association, a precursor to the Centralia Baptist Association and Kaskaskia Baptist Association, was organized in 1840 and centered in the Vandalia, Illinois, area. It originated from the Saline Fraternity, which was organized in 1834, which in turn was an offspring of the Old South District of the Friends of Humanity.
==History==
In October 1840, a meeting was held with Union Church, six miles southwest of Patoka, Illinois, for the purpose of forming a new Baptist Association. The following churches located in the South Central Illinois counties of Fayette, Marion, and Clinton were represented: Vandalia, Salem, Marshall Creek, Bethel, Clinton Hill, Diamond Springs, and Beaver Creek. The ministers present were Rev. George Stacy, Rev. W. F. Boyakin, Rev. S. K. Kellam, and Rev. J. R. Ford. The organization was completed by the adoption of the associational constitution and the election of a moderator, clerk, standing secretary and treasurer.〔History of the Kaskaskia Baptist Association, First Edition, Kaskaskia Publishing, Patoka, Illinois 2001. p. 2〕
The association took its name from the old state capital and was hence known as the Vandalia Baptist Association. The first annual meeting of the association was held in Vandalia. During the ensuing twenty years (1841–1861) the following churches came into the association: Shoal Creek, Wabash, Liberty, Bear Creek, Fosterburg, Clear Creek, and Zion Hill. Among the ministers connected with the body during this period were Rev. Joseph Taylor, Rev. Joseph Huey, Rev. William Steele, Rev. E.A. Cooley, Rev. T. B. Grubb, Rev. W. J. Goldsborough, Rev. A. J. McClelland, and Rev. I. A. Dale.〔
