Burial listings at USGenWeb site. Albert's Chapel United Methodist Church History of the Church at it's Centennial Celebration! "Before the church was built only a small cemetery was located on the property. . .In 1898 the church was built. It was named Albert's Chapel in honor of Albert Poling, who became interested in building the church when he was about twenty-five years old. . .Various stories have been told as to why the church was built in such an unusual shape. We do not know which one of these stories influenced Albert's decision to build a round church. It is often referred to as round, but it is actually octagonal shaped with eight distinct sides. . .The church was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 22, 1982." The cemetery is located U.S. Route 119 at the church. |
