On the National Register

Salem Methodist Episcopal Church Matched to this establishment on the distinguishing word methodist.

Named in the 1879 county history

The history of Columbiana County was published 29 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

A Disciple congregation was organized at New Garden in 1842 as a branch of the church at Hanover, although the members of the congregation worshiped in the town schoolhouse and Methodist church previous to and in 1841, and in that year built a frame church south of the centre of the village. At the organization there were fully 50 members, of whom Thomas Robinson, Anthony Taylor, and John Montgomery were chosen trustees. The congregation worshiped in the frame church until 1856, when, the membership having materially declined in number, the separate organization was abandoned and a return made to the church at Hanover, where the members of the New Garden congi'egation thereafter attended worship.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Columbiana 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.
