- Description:
- The Upper Country Line Primitive Baptist Association formed from Country Line Primitive Baptist Association which itself had formed out of the Flat River Association. In 1805 the Flat River Association divided into the Flat River and Country Line Associations due to the large number of churches. The first session of Country Line was held in August of 1806. In 1905 the Country Line Association also divided, due to large membership, into Upper and Lower Country Line Associations using the South Hyco Creek as the dividing line. Upper Country Line was assembled in August of 1906, comprised of churches mostly located in North Carolina. The association regularly maintained communication with churches and associations in North Carolina and Virginia.

- Description:
- Black Creek Primitive Baptist Association was formed close to the year 1875. It was comprised of churches mostly in North Carolina and communicated regularly with churches and associations in North Carolina and Virginia and at times other states. The association generally convened annually in October for three days. It appears there may have been a division around the year 1954 at which point some churches left to form another association under the same name of Black Creek Primitive Baptist Association.

- Description:
- Bear Creek Primitive Baptist Association was founded in the year 1832 with the churches Bear Creek, Cold Water, Piney Woods, Freedom, and Meadow Creek. It was comprised of churches from North Carolina and corresponded with churches and associations in Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, South Carolina, and Virginia. Starting in 1885 it held two sessions annually, one in the spring and one in the fall. These biannual meetings continued for much of its existence. In 1927 there appears to have been a split with some churches leaving the association and continuing to meet together under a similar name.
