This was once the "Union Church, was built in 1823 to serve as a meeting house for several different denominations, thus its name Union Church; such churches were a common phenomenon in early settlements but not many of these have survived. It is a simple gable front church with a cemetery that also dates back to the early 19th century."[2]
