_________________________
Zion Moselem Lutheran church
In 1741 a warrant was issued to Adam Kuhn, Leonard Bieber, William Killian and Christian Houseknecht for 101 acres. The patent had been received July 31, 1741, for the consideration of fifteen pounds thirteen shillings.
Upon this land a log church was built late the following summer, close to where the sexton's house now stands. It was dedicated by Rev. Johann Valentine Kraft, the Evangelical Lutheran pastor at the church (and probably the first minister), on Thursday, Jan. 20, 1743.
Old descriptions place the meetinghouse “in Philadelphia County, in Andelanen (Ontelaunee area), bounded by lands of Carl Hefelin and Ulrich Scherer.”
Little is known about the building, other than it was a very small log structure noted for being uncomfortably damp. On rainy days it was difficult to keep books and clothing dry due to the poor construction of the roof. After the congregation worshiped here for about six years, Thomas and Richard Penn, proprietaries of the province, gave them 107 acres of land, which included the usual allowance of six acres (out of every 100) for roadways and highways.
