"One of their prayers was answered in 1870 when the First Baptist Church and Society at Chenango Point sold their original building to the Port Crane congregation for $5,000.00. The church was disassembled, placed on a canal boat on the Chenango Canal and towed from Chenango Point in Binghamton to Port Crane where it was re-assembled on the corner of Canal and Park Street on a piece of property that was purchased for $6,000. The church at Port Crane was dedicated to the Lord's Service November 22, 1870." --Source ( visit link)
