Have a marriage record with a pastor and church name that is not legible. Hoping someone has come across this address in association with a Methodist Episcopal church - 268 Stuyvesant Street. The date is 1906, the pastor's name looks like John Werley or Werlexxxx. The Church's name is one word plus M.E. Church after it. Looks like the first letter of the name of the church could be 'J'. I believe that address is a residence since I was able to find a Rev. James Montgomery at that address in the Bklyn City Directory in 1889-90 along with 2 other families. No idea if he was affiliated with the church listed on the marriage record. If someone has access to a 1906 Brooklyn City directory and can check for a one name Methodist Episcopal church with a possible pastor's name similar to John Werle, that would be a big help too.

I think it is James Street Methodist Episcopal Church, one of whose pastors was John Wesley Hill. I do not know if the church still exists.
