Nails Creek Baptist Church. This is the church where the Family Reunion is now held. It originally started as a birthday party for James Claudius Ariail approximately 1 mile away at his home. The large cemetery next to the church was originally started when Lemuel Lawrence Ariail died from disease in the Civil War. His father stated that he did not know if they would be able to keep their 600+ acre farm after the war so they decided not to bury him in a family plot which was normal procedure during the early times. He instead buried his son in the churchyard which is now the Church Cemetery. Since the Ariail family was so very large in that area at that time most of the people buried in the cemetery are either Ariail or related to them in one way or another. The church is located on Georgia RT51 in Banks County Georgia.
