Wesley Chapel, 1892

Title

Wesley Chapel, 1892

Description

Handmade quilt square which depicts local church as part of the 15-panel Heritage Quilt of Cedar Mill. Description from related pamphlet: BLOCK 2 WESLEY CHAPEL by Diane West. This little church was dismantled not many years ago. Its bell was sold and hangs in another old church not far away. Wesley Chapel was located west adjacent to the new 7-11 Store in the Milltowner area. Jasper and Abraham Lincoln Young donated a piece of land in the corner of their place on Cornell Road, and during the summer of 1892 Wesley Chapel was built and dedicated in the fall. It was served by a Methodist pastor who had several other 'points' or churches on his circuit. At that time, Cedar Mill consisted of a general store and post office, two blacksmith shops, a prune dryer, and several homes.
