Description

Two postcards of the 1889 St. John's Presbyterian Church. This was the 2nd church built on this site. The congregation was organized in 1831 and they built their first church, a brick church which came to be known as "The Brick Church". Construction began in 1833 and took four years to complete. Dedication was 18 June 1837. The second church ( this photo) was built when a larger church was needed. The "Brick Church" was demolished and some of the brick was used in the new church pictured in this postcard.
