The church was founded by a Frame & the first preacher was a Frame. My grandparents farm is just down the road from here & we visited here quite often even though I grew up in Ohio, at least once a year.
When my father was a boy, there was an incident here where a known person took a sledge hammer to many old solid marble headstones. He broke them all off at the ground then layed them down because he complained it wasnt easy to mow around them all. I believe this is the older section, if you are looking at the front of the church, it will be over to the right where it looks empty with no markers. This would have been around the 1950's or early 60's. When my father first told me this story, i thought the stones were disposed of. I had no idea until recently that they were laid down & are now under the ground. I feel this needs to be investigated to see if there is a way they can be located to read.
