Regarding Pullman Memorial Universalist Church. Part of the Orleans County Courthouse Historic District (added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 31, 1979), the church was built in 1894 by George M. Pullman, a railway car magnate, in memory of his parents. The church was designed in the Old English Gothic style by S.S. Beman. Constructed of Medina sandstone, it features 56 windows by the Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company and a Johnson pipe organ. Pullman grew up in Albion before relocating to Chicago.
