This rural church was located amid the farmlands of Shelby County, Indiana. A well kept cemetery surrounds the 1872 brick chapel. The bell tower and front entrance were added during a 1902 renovation. Abandoned in 1942, the church collapsed during the mid-1990s. However, a sense of family history, ceremony, and ritual prevails.

Retired - October 1992
