    Mecklenburg County's Presbyterian congregations of the colonial era are collectively remembered as the 'Seven Sisters': Sugar Creek (est. c.1756), Hopewell (1762), Poplar Tent (1764), Centre (1765), Providence (1767), Steele Creek (organized before 1760), and Philadelphia (1770) -- reflecting the dense Scots-Irish Presbyterian settlement pattern that shaped local governance and later revolutionary sentiment in the county.
