Notes

Gift of Craig Simons, whose family lived at 106 (later 245) Tod Avenue in Warren. Mr. Simon estimates that these photos were taken around 1900, at which time John M. (b1869) and Anna G. Craig (b1869) lived in the Tod Avenue home with their children Charles W. Craig and Lucy M. Craig, and a boarder, David D. Evens.

The church was founded in 1897, and the original structure was erected in 1898 on the Southwest corner of Tod Avenue and Buckeye Street. A parsonage was built in 1904 next the church on Buckeye Street. The cornerstone for the present church was laid on July 11, 1912, and construction of the new church was completed in 1913 (dedication program).
