Notes
  • See HABS No. KS-49 for list of structures that are contributing to the historic district and fieldnotes.
  • Significance: The first church congregation organized in 1878 on the town site; the first congregation to build a church edifice of sod blocks. One of the few sites within the village proper which illustrates the evolution of building types from dugout, sod structure, limestone structure with gable roofs and eventually stuccoed, to new brick sanctuary built in 1975. (All sanctuaries built by ex-slaves and/or local residents.) The largest and most enduring congregation existing on the town site since 1878. Congregation still utilizing the 1907 church building as a fellowship hall. Excluding the 1939 Township Hall, the 1907 church structure is the largest single building on town site.
