The First Baptist Church was founded in

$1.00. Holladay's International Hotel, which
burned in the mid 1800's, was previously on the
site. In 1896 the Baptist Church was
completely destroyed by fire. A second
building was built on the site, which now
houses the Weston Historical Museum. In 1959
the church moved to a new building on
Walnut Street.

Weston United Methodist to a halt. The
church found itself divided on the slavery
issue and during the war the church stood
empty and unfinished. With peace restored
the building was completed and in 1868, nine
years after construction had begun, the
Church was dedicated with a grand
celebration.
