St. Paul's United Methodist Church (Findlay, Ohio) records
Collection Overview
Abstract
The collection, dating from 1870-1954, consists of two volumes of record books, one volume of congregational meeting minutes and eight volumes of the Ladies Aid Society/Women's Missionary Society minutes. The record books include information on membership including baptisms, marriages and funerals, and date from 1870-1945. Also included in these record books are detailed histories of the church. The congregational meeting minutes only date from 1908-1912, and largely pertain to the purchase of a lot and the plans for a new church building. The Ladies Aid Society, which later becomes the Women's Missionary Society, minute books, 1912-1954, document the religious, missionary and fund-raising activities of these church women.
