The Church Building
Trinity Methodist Episcopal, of wood frame constructions, was erected in 1871 at a cost of $1400. When first erected, the church was 26 x 40 feet with the main entrance on Clay Street. In 1884 - 1885, the building was enlarged to meet the demands of a growing congregation. Then, in 1901, the enlarged building was turned on the lot and used as part of a new structure which is the present church and the new entrance faced Taylor Street. Read More....
