Covey, deacons of the Missionary Baptist Church at Agee received a tract of land as a gift from Isaac Massengill who gave the land "to further the cause of Christianity at Agee." Massengill signed the deed with his mark. The deed was notarized by C. P. Woodward at Fairy, TX, and was recorded in Hamilton County Deed Book, Vol. 22, p. 60.
