Nelson Boro Churches.
As I mentioned previously, Nelson Boro had two churches, the Methodist
Episcopal which was on the south side, on the old Rt 49; and the Beecher's
Island Presbyterian Church, which stood at the S.W. Corner of the Nelson
Cem. The former was moved to the new Nelson community center complex
and is still in use. My ggf, Rev. Henry David Goodrich, was one of
it's ministers. The Presbyterian Church was closed and unfortunately
was allowed to deteriorate, and was finally demolished. (Bill Thompson) |
