How the name was read

Each atlas was set in type by a different hand and scanned decades later, so the same establishment comes back spelled differently. Every reading below was produced by the recogniser from the sheets; none was corrected or invented. They are published so a search for any of them finds this page.

Named in the 1881 county history

The history of Clark County was published 10 years before the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

An Anti-Slavery Methodist organization was effected in 1844 at known as the Wesleyan Church, which built a church on a lot given by David Littler, and, after a few years of good work, was abandoned. In this church in 1850 Rev. A. L. Rankin organized a Free Presbyterian Church. This organization, in 1852, built a frame church on a lot donated to it by John Hume., at Clifton, on a hill in Green Township, and in 1859 it was merged into a new organization of the United Presbyterian Church, with Rev. W. A. Campbell, Pastor, who acted 4s such for sixteen years. Since 1878, Rev. R. C. Wyatt has had pastoral care. In 1859, a fine brick church was built, and is warmed by means of the modern improvement - a furnace in the basement.

Provenance

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