Biographical / Historical
The church was organized in 1806. In 1812 church activity declined and religious services were held infrequently until 1866 when Reverend William B. Edson revived the church. A new wood church in the Gothic style was built in approximately 1868 and called St. John's Chapel. In 1874 the parish joined with the convention of New York. By 1881 a new church was built.
