The other side of this cornerstone indicates that the congregation was founded in 1881. The current building was built in 1938, with an addition having been added in 1983.
Memorial Christian was a Disciples of Christ congregation. Although the church is still clearly in use today, it is somewhat unclear what denomination meets there. A web listing for this address lists this as the Jacksboro Parish, some sort of mixed Presbyterian-Disciples of Christ congregation.
