I am researching two early families (Flores and Ring) who were members of the Zion Lutheran Church in Zionsville, Upper Milford Township, Pennsylvania. (This area is now in Lehigh County.) This church was reportedly formed about 1758, out of an earlier Lutheran church in Upper Milford Township, following a division among the older church's members. I have seen this earlier church called the "First Evangelical Lutheran Church," but a list of early Lutheran churches in Bucks County does not show a church of this name. Can anyone help me to identify this older church, and tell me where its records are located? Might the "First Evangelical Church" have dissolved soon after 1758? Or is the name I have incorrect? Looking at that list of known Lutheran churches in Bucks County, the most likely candidate for the church from which Zion was formed would seem to be St. John's Evangelical Lutheran (Scheetz's), in Spinnerstown. (All the other early churches were in other townships.) I understand there is a publication outlining a chronology of events in the life of St. John's Church, written by Henry Kistler, but I do not have access to that publication. Another possible resource, again beyond my reach, is Andrew Berkey's The Schoolhouse Near the Old Spring. If anyone on this list can point me to an answer to this mystery, I will be grateful.
