Named in the 1883 county history

The history of Perry County was published 12 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

The churches in New Straitsville are, of course, all of more recent origin. The Catholic church, which is a large brick structure, was builtin 1871. The M. E. church, a frame building of good dimensions, was erected in 1872. The Welsh Baptist and Disciple churches were built in 1880. The society of Primitive Methodists have not yet built, but worship at Odd Ifellow's Hall. The Methodist Protestant congreation have no building of their own, but hold regular services at Kohn's Hall. All of these churches have Sabbath schools connected with them, which schools are said to be in a flourishing condition.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Perry County, Ohio, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
