#tennga

Built in 1947, the Tennga Motel is near the Tennessee-Georgia border on US Highway 411. Motels used to dot highways all across the country, but the creation of interstates diverted traffic away from towns such as Tennga that would serve as a brief respite for travelers. US Highway 411 runs from Alabama to Tennessee through Georgia.

I am unable to locate any history on this church. Tax records indicate the church was built in 1900, which is often used as a placeholder date. I hope to find out more info on this little mountain church.
