COUNTRY CHURCH IN CLYDE, NEW YORK

If you went to the Amish Auction on Friday, you probably went right past this church.  The paint is pealing.  The windows have wholes in them.  Obviously, it isn't used anymore.  I wish I knew the story behind this church.  Wonder what religion services were there?  Did they hold picnic's in the yard?  Did the congregation get so small they had to close ?  Or did the congregation get so large they had to build another church elsewhere?  Oh, I wish the church could tell us.

Good Morning Everyone,
I am so sorry about the comment deletes I made yesterday. I was trying to get rid of spam and I got a rid a lot more than that. Please feel free to leave your comments, this is the first time this has ever happened and I don't plan on doing it again. I do apologize for my mistake.

Wouldn't this church make a fantastic little home? I hope someone does something with it and not let it deteriorate any more. It's so cute.

Mistakes happen. No harm done.

Good Morning Doreen,
I never thought of that, but it would.

Marilyn,
I photographed this old "Marengo" church several years ago and I'm still trying to learn something about it's history. Will let you know if that ever happens. Tom The Backroads Traveller
