| Admin/Biog History |
The first church, used by 3 denominations, was built near the Robinson Creek School. Conflict over the use of the church caused the North Methodists to leave and build their own church in 1882. This church was rebuilt in 1889. The creek on which the church was near was a popular site for baptisms. In 1930 a basement was added. Attendance soon fell to nearly 5 members. The church was placed on the Tower Hill Circuit but on June 30, 1986 the congregation had their last service. The church was sold to the Robinson Creek Cemetery Association. |
