UNITED BRETHREN CHURCH AT TUCKERTOWN

The United Brethren Church at Tuckertown, now supplanted by a Lutheran Church, was organized about 1868, and the meetings were held in private homes. The first pastor was Rev. George HICKEY. In 1876 a frame church was erected at the point known as Tuckertown, and was dedicated the last Sunday in June 1877. The pastor at that time was Rev. James ALDRICH. Among the early members and supporters of the church were: John SHOUP, Nelson BLOOD, William BLACKBURN, Levi PRUDY and Philip APPLE. Aden TUCKER donated the site.

There is a quaint cemetery at Tuckertown that forms the subject of an article by Mr. O. D. BRANDENBURG, published herewith.
