Pleasant Valley Baptist Church was established Sunday, 10 September, 1876, and was one of the founders of the Hamilton County Baptist Association on 4 July, 1877. Daniel Babb preached the first sermon in the Pleasant Valley community under an oak tree. Pleasant Valley Baptist Church was organized by Rev. Daniel Babb, probably Rev. Noah T. Byars, and possibly Rev. Edmund Eldred Sellers.

Pleasant Valley Baptist Church and First Baptist Church, Evant (originally called Sweet Home Baptist Church) are the only charter-member churches of HCBA still active and in existence today.
