The methodist church is still there, i drive by it every summer. I s'pect the best way to contact them would be to send a letter to Ruth Scott in Decatur. Don't worry 'bout the street address, she'll get it. She's the stringer for Decatur in the Leon Journal Reporter....mac killeen texas ----- Original Message ----- From: Danny & Barbara Trammell To: IADECATU-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, April 13, 2005 10:59 PM Subject: [IADECATU] Decatur" Ownby" family/ Afton" Kelley" family Hi, can anyone tell me how to contact the Episcopal Methodist Church in Afton, Iowa. I've been told it's still there. Also, a Methodist Church in Decatur that would have been around in the late 1800's???? Looking for more info on The James & Sarah (Sallie) Ownby family in Decatur. They are buried in the Decatur Cemetery, I have the plot info etc.... James & Sallie are my Great Grandparents.
