A History of Kentucky Baptists, From 1769 to 1885, by J. H. Spencer, 1886,
Reprinted by Church History and Archives, 1976, Lafayette, TN.  Gasper
River Association. Logan County.

LEWIS FORTNER had a share in laying the foundation of the early churches
in Gasper River Association.  He was in the ministry, and was a preacher
in Dan River church, in Patrick county, Virginia, as early as 1790.  He
moved to Logan county, Ky., at an early period, and was probably
instrumental in gathering Center church, which was constituted by Lewis
Moore and Edward Turner, in 1810, and appears to have been its first
pastor.  In this capacity he ministered till 1815, after which we have no
account of him.  He was an old man, and probably finished his course,
about that time.
