| Organized in 1815, the congregation built a stone church in 1833 and replaced it with a frame building in 1915. The building burned in 1973 and was replaced in 1975. Two stained glass windows from the earlier church were installed. The congregation disbanded in 2008. It is now the Eastside Christian Church. | |||||
