Joseph B. Doyle's 1910 "The History of Steubenville and Jefferson County Ohio" contains a reference to a Sugar Grove M. E. Church in Knox Twp located "...very near the Saline Township line, four miles below the mouth of Yellow Creek, and two miles from Empire." The Jefferson Co Genweb shows a Sugar Grove Cemetery and mentions a new Sugar Grove Methodist Church. Can anyone tell me if these two churches and the cemetery are one and the same or otherwise related? The history goes on to give a list of names, including a John Sapp, who were in the first class (sometime between 1800 and 1802. Would class in this context refer to congregation or would this church also served as a school? If the churches are related, would the "new" church have records going back to the founding of the original church? Thanks for any help. John Sapp sappjohn@erols.com
