"In 1840, about 15 people decided to form the first church in the area under Rev. Daniel Smith. In 1843, the church was built on land bought from Dr. James Trippe. By 1850, and again in 1871, new and larger churches were constructed on the same site. A fire destroyed the building in 1881, and the present building was constructed in 1882 and 1923. The 85-foot steeple altop the church can be seen for some distance." Touring Historical Whitewater, n.d.
