Macedonia Baptist Church

Macedonia Baptist Church was founded by Harlan Joseph's stepfather's family, the Killingsworth's, after they arrived in New Jersey from South Carolina. We've been in contact with the church, and some members, but eagerly invite all recollections. This example of migration is so much part of Trenton's story. We found this wonderful photo of the early 1940s congregation—probably the Sunday School— at Macedonia Baptist Church when it was at 110 Decatur Street. We know that Reverend James Killingsworth is on the far left, and Mrs. Beulah Killingsworth is standing in the back row. Can you help identify other people in the photo?
