There are three cornerstones for this church, each one stacked on top of the other. They are from 1898, 1936 and 1969,73. It seems there has been multiple construction. I visited on Sunday at the time when the final service was letting out. They viewed me with suspicion and questioned why I was taking pictures. I explained and they had absolutely no idea what I was talking about with regards to the NRHP. They had no idea they were on the NRHP and some didn't even notice the cornerstones. The town is very small and this is the only religious structure in the area. There is no information on the internet about this place.
