Pioneer settler C.A. McMillen established the Corinth Society Church of August 2, 1846. Thought to be the oldest continuing church congregation in Collin County, its charter members included the Murphy, Wilkins, and Maxwell families. The church served as both a Presbyterian and a community church. The congregation first met east of Murphy in the Maxwell schoolhouse. After the Civil War, the church members met in the McMillen home, and later at the Wilkins schoolhouse. Several years later, the congregation constructed its first church building at the corner of Grey Lane and Gregory Lane. In the early 1920s Mr. and Mrs. C.C. Gregory donated more than two acres on Parker Road to the church. A new sanctuary was completed in 1923, and the congregation commemorated its dedication with day-long events at the new structure. The church building was refurbished in the 1980s, and a bell steeple was added. The church continues to serve the needs of its members, participates in community activities, and supports outreach programs in the area. Corinth Presbyterian Church has been an integral part of the Parker area for more than 150 years. (1996)***
