Would like to know the location of this church and whether it is still standing. The official name was St Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church. Craig J Cameron
My Indiana Co ancestors, primarily WILSON and HILL families, but also LONGENECKER and RHOADES, were likely affiliated with the Brush Valley Lutheran Church and/or the St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Churches. It is my understanding that the records and Bible from the later were transferred to Brush Valley and that documents related to both were then sent to the Lutheran seminary in Gettysburg, when Brush Valley closed. Haven't had any luck tracking this down. My gggrandparents Samuel Wilson (1825-1904) and Barbara Hill (1827-1868) are buried at the old Strongstown cemetery on Rt. 422, very near the former site of St. Paul's (Other Hill and Rhoades graves are also there.) Am still looking for their marriage record and info about Samuel's Wilson family. I would be most appreciative of any info regarding the above. Many thanks from Barbara Wilson Rich. -----Original Message----- From: paindian-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:paindian-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Craig Cameron Sent: Sunday, January 31, 2010 12:01 PM To: PAINDIAN@rootsweb.com Subject: [PA INDIANA] Strongstown Lutheran Church, Pine Township Would like to know the location of this church and whether it is still standing.
