second Zion Moselem Lutheran church 1761-1894
second Zion Moselem Lutheran church 1761-1894 Jacqueline Johnson added this on 14 Sep 2010 shill66 originally submitted this to Hill Family Tree on 21 Jan 2010 J.H. Schaum (some sources give his name as Frederick Schaum) served as the congregation's third pastor from 1761 until his death in 1778. It was during Schaum‘s ministry that the unusual six-sided church structure was erected in 1761 of “neighborhood stone.” As was the custom of the day, there was a gallery (balcony), brick floor, and simple benches for seating. Inasmuch as folk of that period were not wasteful, most of the roofing material from the earlier church was recycled for use in the new building, which in time fell into serious disrepair.
