Some of you in the past have asked about German Reformed (now UCC) records in Liberty Township, Fairfield Co, OH. Since the Trinity UCC is not advertising these books 234 pages - I thought it was important that the list became aware. To those who are interested in this denomination and had ancestors living in the Basil area the records of the Trinity UCC church 1845-1995 are available for $13 plus $3 mailing costs. Please contact Maxine Fisher at 316 Jefferson St, Baltimore, OH 43105-1208 phone 740-862-8175. These are being sold by the church - Maxine is a member there. Very few church historians take the time to copy all the baptisms, marriages, confirmation, deaths for 150 years. This is one of the best written church histories I have seen. The only glitch is that there isn't an index - (I am working on this and have the first 100 pages or so of the church records index with 100 more to do) I am willing to e-mail this index to all those who are interested as is or when it is done. Also the printer put the landscaped pages in the wrong way which makes it a little harder to read, but is well worth the trouble. Yes, there are copies left, but not too many. Please note other names for this church are St Paul's which was a Union church of Lutheran and Reformed 1828-1843. When the German Reformed split from the Lutheran, the church was formed with 8 members some from St Paul's some from St. Micheal's. Other names for the church include Basil German Reformed or German Reformed Congregation of Basil. In 1847 the name was changed to Trinity German Reformed Church. In 1934 because the Reformed Church in US and Evangelical Synod of North America merged it was called the Trinity Evangelical and Reformed. In 1957 when the Evangelical and Reformed merged with the Congregational and Christian Churches it became the United Church of Christ (UCC) and thus, Trinity UCC. Please note Maxine does not have a copy of the index - it is a work in progress. If you wish a copy please contact me about that. I DO NOT HAVE COPIES OF THE BOOK TO SELL please contact Maxine about that.
