The second minister who came into the township was the Rev. James Dixon, who was appointed to Tuscarawas circuit, Nov 1, 1810, the district being known as Muskingum District of the Methodist Episcopal Church, the conference being known as the Western Conference ; and since the coming of the Rev. James Dixon, the township has never been without preaching by some minister of that church.
