I find 5 churches in early Perrysburg: Baptist Church, near Versailles, organized 1821 The Methodist Episcopal Church, of Versailles, organized 1842 The Perrysburg Methodist Episcopal Church, incorporated 1853 The West Perrysburg Methodist Episcopal Church, organized 1822 The First Congressional Society of Versailles, incorporated 1846 Source: History of Cattaraugus County New York, with Illustrations & Biographical Sketches of some of its prominent men and pioneers, published 1879. Perrysbury is on pages 239 to 248. Articles of the churches might mention your surname family. Check to see if this is online via Heritage Quest or other books online, so you could read it at home. Susanne **************** Can someone direct me to where I can find a history of the churches of Perrysburg?? I have a Bible copyrighted 1822 where the recipient's name is in the front along with Versailles, Catt Co, NY 1822.? I'm thinking that he may have received it when he was baptized or joined the church.? Did Perrysburg have any churched that early?

Do church records exist for the Baptist Church or the West Perrysburg M.E. Church, as they were organized at the same time as the Bible was signed?  I understand that it was 200 years ago and I have a 2% chance, but I have to ask anyway.
