1. Springdale Presbyterian Church Marker

Inscription. Through overtures to the Presbyterian Church hierarchy by Reverend James A. Kemper the Springfield congregation was founded in 1792, and in 1794 began raising funds for this meetinghouse and this cemetery built between 1801-1803. Named after the township and the church, in 1806 the town of Springfield was founded, which was later changed to Springdale. And while the Springdale Presbyterian Church held its last worship service in 2020, the work of its saints – past and present – will forever live on.

Erected 2020.
