Florence United Methodist Church History Collection

This digital collection is a sample of items from the physical collection of the Florence United Methodist Church History Collection. It presents several items of church history from an early church photograph of the building in 1899 to an article about Bishop Wheatley making a visit in 1978. The collection also includes photographs of the 1973 fire that almost destroyed the church. By 1975, they had rebuilt and were set to celebrate their mortgage-note burning service in 1977. This collection was digitized by Baylee Suskin whose work has been graciously funded by the Mountain Sky Archives and History Commission.
