The Rev.  D. M. Breaker

      Very little is known about D. M. Breaker's life, except that he was a Baptist minister, an "army missionary" during the civil war, and a contemporary of J. M. C. Breaker, as he wrote articles for his Confederate Baptist Magazine.  Even the initials "D. M." remain a mystery, as no one I've talked to in the family knows what it stands for. (Personally, I think it could be for Daniel, as I found a Daniel in an old census record).

     D. M. was the first pastor of St. John Baptist Church in Pinopolis, South Carolina, which started on June 15, 1851 with eight members that transferred from the Goose Creek and Mt. Olivet Churches.

     It could be his is also a son of Lewis Frederick Breaker (highly unlikely), or more probably the son of Charles Middleton Breaker.  If anyone has more information on who he is, who his parents were, when and where he was born, etc., please let me know.  My email address is:  Robertbreaker3@hotmail.com

     The only records I could find of D. M. Breaker (beside his articles in the Confederate Baptist found below), were his marriage record to one Miss Mary E. Lindsay on Sept. 20, 1849, and a death certificate for his daughter Mary Jane Ross, on June 17, 1876.
