Calvin Rufus Church, engineer, post office Turtle Creek, is descended from English ancestors, through a long line in America. The homestead in East Haddam, Conn., has always descended to sons named Joseph Church. Calvin Church was born on this homestead in 1799 (should be 1794), and went to Rome, Ashtabula county, Ohio, when twenty-two years old. There he engaged in farming and afterward moved to Thompson, same state, where he kept store and hotel, and died in 1856. His wife, Susan, nee Crowell, was also a native of Middlesex county, Conn. Calvin Church was one of the defenders of New London during the war of 1812. -A Genealogical and Biographical History of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania by Thomas Cushing, Published in 1889
