Maybe then the oldest continuous Harmonia Sacra singing in the country. The
Chattahoochee Sacred Harp convention dates from 1850 - it did get
interrupted by the Civil War but resumed shortly after. I attended the
150th in 2001 or 2002.
A Sacred Harp friend was the editor of the recent Harmonia Sacra edition.
