Areas Of Hardshell History Needing Further Study

1. Two Seedism and its influence in the PB church

2. The Division over means in the latter end of the 19th century. Obtaining the writings of the means side, such as elders E.H. Burnam, W.T. Pence, et als. 

3. A full reading of the leading periodicals of the PBs from 1830-1900, especially those that are rare and hard to find.

I have been studying these things for years and hunting for these periodicals. I had to drive to Duke University to do research there. I really need to go to Nashville now to do research at sbhl. But, that does not seem to be something that will happen any time soon. It is amazing that the only places to find old PB literature, books, periodicals, association records, etc., are to be found in the archives of the Missionary Baptists! Ironic too.
