"St. John's Pinckney Church:
An Evangelical Church in the southern part of Pinckney Township, near the Missouri River where old Pinckney was once located. Five acres of the original seven acre tract of land connected with the church have washed into the Missouri River. The institution was organized in 1870 and named St. Johannes' Congregation of the Evangelical Church, in honor of the Apostle. Johannes is the German form of the name, now generally Anglicized to St. John. It is now usually known as St. John's Pinckney Church in memory of the Pinckney community." ~ History of St. Charles County, Goodspeed, p. 1013
