This paper examines the conditions that surrounded the formation of this congregation during the Reconstruction period after the Civil War. The first members of the McClintock Church faced the poverty, prejudice, and persecution which surrounded all ex-slaves in the South as they adjusted to their new political freedom. Special attention is given to the missionary efforts of the Freedmen's Committee of the Old School Presbyterian Church as it sponsored pastors and teachers in the South. The founding pastor of McClintock Church was the Rev Samuel C Alexander of Shirleysburg, Pennsylvania. Part of his story will also be told in this paper.
