[edit] History
Early in the 1960s, the Wallace Hylton family, who had been in fellowship at Bethany Chapel, Augusta, GA moved to Salisbury, south of Winston-Salem, and entered into fellowship at the Parkway Gospel Chapel in Winston-Salem. Others living in Salisbury were also traveling to Winston-Salem. Because of the distance, Bill Hylton, Wallace Hylton, Warren Hylton, Joe Walmsley, and Jim Myers decided in late 1971 to start an assembly in Salisbury. Thus [Bethany Chapel]] in Salisbury was born, a hive-off of Parkway Gospel Chapel. The group first met in Warren Hylton’s office building, then in the Dukeville School, and then in an apartment for a few years. In 1973 they were able to purchase a church building on Main Street in Salisbury. In 1995, the Christians built the chapel at 4260 Stokes Ferry Road where they are now meeting. Elders in the assembly have been David Brewer and Tim Miskell in addition to the above. Bethany Chapel has about 50 adults and youngsters in attendance.
