Originally located on the banks of Alligator Creek, Pleasant Hill Baptist Church was Alligator Creek Baptist Church. The beginning of the church is not known, but in 1912, with about 35 members, it was decided to move the church about five miles southwest of Cadwell and to re-name it Pleasant Hill. A sanctuary was built with three Sunday school rooms. A large balcony area was added in the 1930's, but in 1952 the structure was torn down, and many of the materials from the building were used in erecting a new church.

Pleasant Springs was constituted in 1870 in the Johnson community of Oconee district, and the first building was located on the John A. Johnson place, near the spring which game it its name. The second house was erected about a half mile away on land belonging to James A. Johnson, Sr. Then in 1941 it was torn down and another building was constructed with the same materials. This third building had one room and would seat 100 people. The fourth structure, of brick, was built and dedicated on October 1954.

This church was established in 1886 and was a member of the Daniel Baptist Association, located in Vidalia, but when the Laurens County Baptist Association was established in 1911, it was received into with the name Poplar Springs South Baptist Church to distinguish it from the Poplar Springs Baptist Church north of Dublin. The church was first located by the spring, and it is believed that it burned but that another one was constructed at the same place. Later it was demolished and moved closer to the road. Records detail the pastors who have served the church since the later 1890's.
