    1. [WIWAUKES] Re: ME Church in Menomonee Falls
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/TFC.2ACE/551.1 Message Board Post: According to "Photographs and Memories" published by the Menomonee Falls Historical Society in 1977, the ME Church was organized in the 1840's by villagers chiefly of English and Yankee origin. Names of members included Fraser, Wood, Wildish, Pilgrim, Camp, Seabold, Morehouse, Pratt, Spinner, Church, Rowell and others. After many of the older members died, only a few parishioners were left and the church disbanded in 1929. The church building, built in 1868, still exists (without the 120 foot high tower) behind some business buildings on Appleton Ave. I don't know where the records might be. Perhaps the Menomonee Falls Historical Society or the Waukesha County Historical Society might know.
