The Valley Grove Church was
completed on this site,

purpose was to provide
accommodations for funerals,
there were occasions when
community Sunday School
was held. No religious
denomination was associated
with the Church building.
Upon serving many years for
its intended purpose, the
building was retired March
1990 and it is buried on the
original site. This memorial
is not only to remember the
Church building which stood
on this site, but is in
dedication and memory to
those who are at rest on
these grounds.
