In histories of American Presbyterianism, the southern branch of
the New School Church has received little attention despite its
importance to church history as a whole. This new study provides a
complete account of the southern church, tracing the events and
controversies that led to schism, the founding of the United Synod,
and eventual reunification with the Old School, South. The author
begins by reviewing the causes of the original and Old School-New
School schism of 1837-1838 and the circumstances that gradually
deepened the separation between the northern and southern wings of
the New School. The emergence of United Synod of the South and its
activities in the antebellum period and during the Civil War are
considered next. The author concludes with a discussion of the
final union with the Southern Presbyterian Church in 1864 and
assesses the reasons why the southern New School/United Synod
failed to grow and reach the potential of other Presbyterian
churches of that day.
