Emanuel United Methodist Church
Section 21 History 1835-1922
|
This Church was first known as the Albright Evangelical Church. Originating in 1852
in the Kaley Schoolhouse that was four miles southwest of Culver . Besides sharing the
school building for the purpose intended several other denominations also held their
church services there. |
The first church building was located at 20thA Rd. and State
Road 17 [north side of W. 20A Road, beteen S. Union & S. Tulip Roads]. It was erected in
1872 and called: The Emmanuel Church of the Evangelical Association and was commonly
referred to as the "Albright Church" and designated on plat maps by that name. The 1898
plat map of Marshall county shows the location in the lower left hand corner. |
|
The Albright Evangelical Church (which was established in 1872) was moved into town and
erected on S. Main St. (Mill & Main) in 1899. It is said timbers from the dismantled
'Albright' Church south of Culver and Lost Lake (which was about 2 miles south of
Culver and west of the old gravel pit) was brought in and the new church erected from
them - and a 20 foot addition was placed on it. Yet another version says the whole
church was dismantled brought into town and reconstructed as was.
From 'One Township's Yesterday's '- Corwin
The Evangelical Church
In the year 1872, there was erected, about one and a half miles east of Zion Church, in the
lower part of the township, a house of worship for the congregation of what was designated
as "The Emmanuel Church, of the Evangelical Association." The location was not far south of
Lost Lake, in the northeast corner of the crossroads south of the present Keller farm. It
was right in the corner, near the roadside. It was called the "Albright church," and was so
designated on maps of 1881 and prior, but it went by the official name of the Evangelical
Association.
This original church edifice, built in '42, was moved in 1899, or rather was wrecked and
rebuilt in the present village of Culver , with an addition which made it about twenty feet
longer. Some years later, the church was further improved by being brick veneered and
otherwise changed. The remodeling was done in 1924, and the church structure of today is as
it appeared on the completion of those improvements.

When the Evangelical Church building was moved in from the country and set up again in town, it
traveled a distance of some two miles from its old location south of Culver. The church in the
country had two entrances. In town, it lost one of these, became more modern (and have you noticed
how fast those old-fashioned two-entrance churches are disappearing almost everywhere?). Well,
the town church accepted one entrance, located in a corner of the building. The new church, as it
now stands, is frame, with brick veneer.
1899 - feb 3 - There is strong talk of moving the Evangelical church south of this city into Culver .
1899 - feb 10 - Arrangements have been made by the Evangelical society of this section to build a new church at Culver , and
for that purpose over 1,000 dollars have alreay been raised. Work will be commenced upon the same just as
soon as the weather will permit. Our citizens when called upon sho uld be liberal with donations of cash, as
every church erected in a community tends to better the moral coudition of the people. No one will deny
that the church has been the great factor which brought America to its present exalted position among the
civilized nations of the earth.
1899 - feb 17 - The Evangelical society purchased three lots of Samuel Medbourn Saturday,
facing Main street, west of the grist mill, where it will erect a handsome church in the spring, or
just as soon as the weather will permit. The church will cost in the neighborhood of $2,000
From the abstract of 419 S. Main on page 51 is found that on 2 June 1899 a
warranty deed from Samuel E. and Claire Medbourn was issued to the church trustees as follows: |

The first parsonage was north of the present one on the corner of Main and Madison That would either be the Corndance Cafe or the

family.

An Ornament to the City and a Credit to Its Builders
Culver can now, and will boast of having as fine churches as any town of its size in the state, or in
fact in any town double its size when the church edifices now in course of construction are completed. The
Evangelical church, which is about completed, aud which stands about three blocks south of the post office,
is a model of architectural beauty and speaks volumes in favor of the mechanics who constructed and
planned the building. The church is veneered with brick, the work being performed by D.H. Smith & Co.
of this city,which fully demonstrates that this company is no novice at the business, and can compare its work
with that of any other contractors in the county. The carpenter work is under the immediate charge of that
master mechanic, J. H . Zechiel,who can without fear of contradiction, point with pride to this modern
structure, aud ask “Who can find fault with the work?”
The dimensions of the church are 33x50, with 20 foot ceiling, and has a gallery 15x32, and an ante-room
15x22. The main auditorium is separated from the ante—room by sliding doors, which in case of necessity
can be opened, thus throwingboth rooms into one, which, with the gallery, adds greatly to the
seating capacity of the church. The building contains nine windows the casings etc., being finished with
block trimmings. The inclined floor is laid with white pine— oil finish
The was white coating performed by master artist, S. G. Buswell, (who is proud of the fact that he is a
Culverite,) and it is truly an excellent job.

1952 - Sewer Project
Location of Sewer Line Discussed At Board Meeting
A near capacity crowd of interested citizens attended the regular meeting of
the Town Board on Monday evening.
Many of those attending the busy session were property holders along Main
Street extending from Mill Street to Davis street where the town is seeking a
n easement for the placing of a sewer line at the back of the properties.
The Matter of the location of the line was brought before the group of
property holders at a called meeting two weeks ago where it was explained
that because there was no alley the the town was seeking easements to
permit the placement of the sewers at the back of the property to serve
both Main Street homes and those on Ohio Street.
Original plans called for the sewer line to go around the Boetsma Upholstery
firm Building making it necessary tow manholes.
At Monday’s meeting Joe Boetsma and his son offered to permit the town
to go underneath their building if the could be guaranteed that any damage
to the building would be prepared.
Following a discussion with Donald Lessig, consulting engineer, it was decided
to get estimates on the proposal with a view to following the suggestion. It
was believed that The construction of one manhole together with the saving
in tile would offset the cost of Replacing the floor of the Boestma building.
Among the property holders directly affected are the Evangelical United Brethren
Church which was represented at the meeting by Board Chairman Lester Young,
and L. A. Crabb, Dave Burns, and the Boetsmas.. – Mar 5, 1952
