Reviews
"The original meeting house dates from 1747 but this building replaced it in 1822. The land for the meeting house and cemetery were donated by John Hart who’s buried next to its east wall. An inscription in the cemetery honors the story of Joab Houghton who on April 23, 1775 roused the congregation at Sunday services with the news of Lexington. The stone on which he stood sits above the inscription. A witness stone can be found in front for enslaved teen Friday Truehart who was owned by the reverend here in 1780."
