Ludwig Voigt was the regular preacher from some time before Zion and St. Peter's were erected until his death. After his decease, Rev. Revenach "made but a short stay, and was discharged on account of his lady in 1805. Did not get to live in the parsonage that was rented on account, as the Pikeland congregation had taken Henry Geisenheiner, of whom the Vincent congregation had a dislike." A short time after, Rev. Frederick Jasinsky became the ac- ceptable and beloved and united preacher at both churches. He was buried at St. Peter's at his request. He occupied the parsonage during life, and in that time a new stone house and a barn were erected by the two congregations. Succeeding him were Rev. Frederick Geisenheiner, senior and junior, and Rev. Jacob Wampole. In the time of the Geisenheiners, English preaching in the afternoon in both churches was admitted. In 1836, Frederick Ruthrauff became the preacher, and had possession of the parsonage; but in 1842 he was dismissed by the Vincent Consistory and ordered to leave the parsonage, upon which he moved near to Lionville and retained St. Peter's and Lionville congregations, and St. Matthew's, on the Conestoga pike, "a new church a mile above that at formerly Ludwig's Tavern." This was built two or three years before. After Rutbrauff left, Rev. Joseph Miller, from the Trappe, served the church until Rev. Mr. Weldon became the regu- lar preacher at Zion and St. Paul's,-German in the fore- noon and English in the afternoon. , He purchased the parsonage from the two congregations.

ST. PETER'S.

About the year 1770 the congregation of Zion Church, being about to erect a new building, were divided in opinion

as to the location, and this resulted in the erection of two. Michael Koenig, by deed of May 16, 1771, conveyed to Peter Hartman, George Emrey, Conrad Miller, and Adam Moses between one and two acres of land for the use of a church and burying-ground, as also a right of way two yards in width to a spring on the other side of the road (called then Griffith Evans' road), and a square perch at the spring, with liberty to build a house over it, etc. This land was then subject to a mortgage which covered the whole township, but on Aug. 9, 1791, Samuel Hoare, by his attorneys, Benjamin Chew, Alexander Wilcocks, and Benjamin Chew, Jr., gave the church a release in consider- ation of five shillings.

It was at the house of Michael Koenig that the Rev. Henry Muhlenberg, the pioneer of Lutheranism in this country, preached before any church had been erected in this part. David King, his great-grandson, now owns and lives on the same land, which has never been out of the family. The following subscription-paper, of which the original was in German, has been furnished, with other matter, by John King, Esq., a great-grandson of Michael, and is of interest as showing who were then citizens and active members of the church in those parts. Pikeland, it may be remarked, was then generally called Pikestown :

" We the Undersigned subscribers do promise fer ourselves our heirs, Executers or Administrators . . . to pay or Cause to be paid unte Michael King, George Emrey, Peter Hartman, & Cenrad Miller, or to either of them or their Successers or their order the Several sum of Meney herein Annexed to our names severally and not to pay one for Another towards paying for a piece of Land in Pikeland Township, Chester County & towards Errecting er Building A Lutheran Church on Said Land one half of Said money to be paid the Twenty-seventh day of November next ensuing the date hereef and the other half of said meney en the Twenty-seventh day of November Annoque Dom- meny 1772.

The church was finished and consecrated November, 1772. Ludwig Voigt, the pastor of this and Zion Church, invited Rev. Henry Muhlenberg to officiate on the occasion, which he did, bringing his wife and the Swedish pastor of Wiccacoa, Rev. Andrew Gocransson, with him from Phil- adelphia. Mr. Muhlenberg preached in German in the forenoon from Gen. xxviii. 20-22, and in the afternoon Mr. Goeransson spoke in English to a great throng. Ser- vices commenced on Sunday, the 8th, and lasted three days, closing with the 10th, during which the Swedish minister spoke in English and Mr. Muhlenberg in German. The latter was much beloved by the people, at whose solicita- tion he remained, visiting in the neighborhood a few days. In going from house to house the people followed with increasing numbers, until, coming at night to the old head- quarters, as the doctor styled Michael Koenig's house, they would hold religious exercises until late at night.

. Dec. 21, 1772, Jacob Danfelser, Adam Moscs, Michael Koenig, and Conrad Sellner were elected trustees, Henry Knerr, George Emrich, Zacharias Rice, and Peter Hart-

man deacons, and Valentine Foos and Baltazar Ludwig wardens, who were installed March 4, 1773. Henry Muhlenberg, Jr., gave the charge on that occasion. The church was incorporated Sept. 29, 1789, under the name of " The German Lutheran Congregation worshiping at the church called St. Peter's, in l'ikeland township," etc. The officers named in the charter were the then minister, Ludwig Voigt ; trustees, Jacob Dannefelser, George Derie, Zachariah Reis ; elders, Valentine Orner, John King, Valentine Fuss, Charles Stell, Jacob Ludwig, and Conrad Henry; deacons, Michael Hallman, Frederick Strauch, and Lawrence King.

The first building was of logs, on the same plan as Brownback's (Reformed) church, mentioned elsewhere. The two congregations of St. Peter's and Zion employed the same pastors, who lived in a parsonage purchased jointly by them until about 1840. The old building, like all other meeting-houses in that part of the county, was used for a hospital during the Revolution.

The following are some of the names found upon the tombstones at this place :

John Hartman, died 1773. Peter Hartman (son of John), born 1740, died 1810. Valentine Orner, born 1743, died 1818. Conrad Miller, died 1774. Valentine Foos, born 1744, died 1815. Conrad Selner, born 1722, died 1777. George Emrich, born 1730, died 1800. His wife died 1828, aged 90 years.

The late Gen. Hartman was the son of George, and grandson of Peter, and an active member of the church, being the treasurer for the greater part of his life. In this he was succeeded by Isaac Tustin, whose useful life was terminated by the disastrous railroad accident on the Pick- ering Valley Railroad, Oct. 4, 1877. John King is the present treasurer.

The old log church had been used nearly 40 years, when, in 1811, it was decided to build a new one, and at the same time an agreement was entered into with the German Reformed congregation by which the latter became part owners of the ground, and the new church was erccted by them jointly. The corner-stone was laid Aug. 13, 1811. The building committee were John Emrig, Michael Schlonecker, and George Hartman, Lutherans; and Henry Labach, John George Schneider, and John Schneider, Reformed. The trustees were Valentine Orner, Michacl Schlonecker, and John Emrig. The officers composing the Council of the Lutheran congregation were Adam Moscs, John Koenig, Benjamin Schoneman, Michael Binder, George Dicry, and Frederick Strauch, elders ; Jacob Binder, Philip Gaugler, and John Schreiber, dea- cons. The church was completed at a cost of $2836.45}, and consecrated, under the name of St. Peter's, Oct. 4, 1812. It had a fine pipe-organ in it, and on alternate Sabbaths was occupied by the Lutheran and Reformed congregations ; but on Jan. 20, 1835, the structure, with all its contents, was destroyed by an incendiary hand. April 24, 1835, the corner-stone of a new edifice was laid, and on the 12th of the following April was consecrated. This building, with a gallery on three sides, and capable of seating 500 persons, is still in use by the two congre- gations and in good repair. The number of communicants has varied during this time from 16 to 160. The two

LUTHERAN CHURCHES.

societies maintain a harmonious feeling among them, and no trouble has arisen from their joint tenantcy.

During the pastorate of Frederick Ruthrauff the an- glicizing influence was strong, and the preaching, which since 1815 had been partly in English, was now entirely in that language. The church united with the newly- formed East Pennsylvania Synod, which held its first meeting here, and in which the English language prevailed. Owing to this and some other innovations, a few of the members who were dissatisfied withdrew and built another church at the opposite end of the cemetery. The two congregations are now nearly equal in point of numbers.

About the time the first church was erected a substan- tial stone school-house was built near by, and was standing until recently, when it was removed to enlarge the ceme- tery. A Sabbath-school was organized Sept. 28, 1828, under the superintendence of John Erwin, and held in the school-house for several years, after which it was removed to the church, and so continnes.

The present trustees arc Harman Pennypacker, George Shoffoer, and John King; elders, Joseph J. Tustin, Dan- iel McClure, Devault Beaver, Samuel Holman, Martin Shoffner, and John Fry; deacons, Aaron King, George Washington Hartman, and Isaac N. Shoffner.

The first preaching of which we have any historical ac- count was done by Rev. Henry Melchior Muhlenberg. But the succession of regular pastors is as follows :

Revs. Ludwig Voigt, J. F. Weinland, Frederick Plitt, J. Rowenauch; Frederick W. Jasinsky, 1811-15; F. W. Geisenheiner, Sr., 1815- 19; F. W. Geisenheiner, Jr., 1819-26 . Jacob Wampole, 1827-36; Frederick Ruthrauff, 1836-43 ; John MeCron, 1843-47; Daniel Mil- ler, 1847-49 ; Peter Rnhy, 1849-58; Samuel Aughey, 1858-59 ; Cor- nelius Reimensnyder, 1859-63 ; N. H. Cornell, 1863-74 ; S. S. Palmer, 1874-76; J. F. Hartmao, 1876-80; J. R. Dimm, 1880 to the present.

To the last named gentleman we are indebted for much of the data since the year 1811.

ST. PETER'S.

This church, located in Pikeland township, was founded by members of St. Peter's, whose history has just been narrated. The old church, about the ycar 1840, intro- duced " new measures," which called forth opposition on the part of a number of the old members, about twelve or thirteen of whom withdrew and built a house of worship for themselves.

May 18, 1843, the corner-stone was laid with the usual solemnity by the pastor, Rev. C. F. Welden, aided by the Rev. J. Miller, D.D., of Reading, Rev. H. S. Miller, of the Trappe, and Rev. Jesse Knipe, of the Reformed Church. The services on the occasion were in the Ger- man and English languages. The following declaration, signed by the pastor and vestry of the church, was read and deposited in the corner-stone :

" May the grace of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, the love of God our Heavenly Father, and the fellowship of the Holy Ghost he with us and with all forever. Amen. In the name of the Holy Trinity we herewith lay the corner-stone of this Evangelical Lutheran Church, styled St. Peter's Church, in the township of Pikeland, county of Chester, State of Pennsylvania, to be used by ns and our posterity for the public worship of Almighty God, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, for the preaching and hearing of the gospel, and for the ad- ministration of the Holy Sacraments in the New Testament of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. And whereas we were formerly

members of the congregation now holding possession of the United Lutheran and German Reformed Church in this place, we deem it necessary herewith, and we do from our hearts most solemnly declare that in erecting this new house of worship on this ground we are actuated by no unholy motives of enmity, of malice, or of opposition to the neighboring church, but having heen deprived of our rights and privileges of membership by the pastor nnd vestry thereof be- cause we adhered conscientiously to the doctrines of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, as we had been taught them by our fathers and former pastors, and neither could nor would sanction the changes and practice the strange forms and measures introduced of late years. We therefore consider ourselves to be truly the German Lutheran congregation of St. Peter's Church, according to the spirit and intent of our forefathers, and as such entitled to the privileges of a congre- gation and a house of worship ; and as all offers for an amicable ad- justment of differences made by us have been refused hy the pastor and vestry now holding possession of the church, and being desirous of avoiding litigation and strife, we have resolved under the provi- dence of God to build for us and our descendants a church in which we may worship God according to the form of doctrine handed down by our fathers, to the intent that as we realized the saving and con- soling influences of the forms and doctrines, so are we desirous to maintain and perpetuate them, that our descendants after us and to all time to come may find hope and consolation, peace and joy, even as we have found in the Gospel of the grace of God. Also, in making choice of this location we are influenced by considerations and feel- ing which we avow without fear or shame. In yon adjoining grave- yard are deposited the ashes of our fathers, and many friends and dear kindred, whose memory is yet fondly cherished in our hearts, and, having once finished our earthly pilgrimage, we wish to mingle our ashes in earth as near ns may be with theirs, that it may add to our joyful surprise in the glorious day of the resurrection to renlize and rejoice with them that ' Death is swallowed up in victory.'

"Having thus truly stated our principles and motives, we solemnly enjoin and make it iceumbent on you, our successors, forever here- after to maintain the doctrines and usages of the Evangelical Lu- theran Church as set forth in the Augsburg Confession of Faith, to preserve pure doctrine and undefiled religion against alt influences and changes of the times and manners of the world ; and so long as the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Pennsylvania shall continue in its adherence to the Augsburg Confession, and remain an independent body, as now constituted, that you with your pastors he, and ever re- main, in connection therewith. Given under our hands this eighteenth day of May, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and forty-three."

Oct. 4, 1843, the church edifice being completed was consecrated to the worship of Almighty God. The form of consecration in the liturgy of the Synod of Pennsylvania was read by the pastor, Rev. C. F. Welden ; Rev. Conrad Miller, of Montgomery Co., Pa., preached in the German, and in the afternoon Rev. S. A. Mealy, of Philadelphia, in the English, language. On the following day, October 5th, Rev. C. R. Demme, D.D., officiated in the German, and Rev. H. S. Miller in the English, language.

The following have been the pastors since the division :

Revs. C. F. Welden, 1842-50; J. C. Miller, 1850-54; William Wea- ver, 1855-64; H. S. Miller, 1864-74; B. C. Snyder, June 1, 1875, to the present .*

CENTENNIAL LUTHERAN CHURCH, AT KIMBERTON.

This church was organized by members of St. Peter's in 1876, under the pastoral care of Rev. J. F. Hartman. Its first officers were J. R. Holman, Isaac K. Root, Jacob Beaver, P. R. Raby, Thomas Wadsworth, Benjamin March, David P. Thomas, George H. Detterline, Christian Bush. The pastors thus far have been Rev. J. F. Hart- man, from 1876 to 1880, and Rev. J. R. Dimm, from

1880 to the present time. The number of communicants at this time (1881) is about 50.

ST. PAUL'S.

St. Paul's, at Lionville, in Uwchlan township, was organ- ized about the year 1839. Twenty-eight years ago, when Rev. Peter Raby was pastor, the present church was built and dedicated. In January last (1881) the same church was again dedicated, after being remodeled and refitted in a handsome manner at a cost of $1500. The dedicatory sermon was preached by Rev. Dr. Conard, of Philadelphia, editor of the Lutheran Observer, from Eph. ii. 4-6.

ST. MATTIIEW'S.

This church, which was established in 1833, is located in West Vincent township. In 1878 the corner-stone of the present edifice was laid ; it was completed in 1879, and dedicated with appropriate ceremonies on May 1st. It is situated about one-eighth of a mile north of the old build- ing. It is of Gothic architecture, will seat 600 people, and cost about $13,000. The Sunday-school was organized April 27th, with Holland Brownback as its superintend- ent. Pastor, Rev. Mr. Cook. The church is free from debt.

Another church of this denomination is known as the " Central Lutheran Church," at Phoenixville, organized in 1876, of which Rev. S. S. Palmer was, and Rev. William M. Baum, Jr., is now, the pastor.

The new Lutheran church at Spring City was dedicated June 27, 1880.

GERMAN REFORMED CHURCHES.

BROWNBACK'S.

This church, located in East Coventry, and known lat- terly as the " First Reformed Church of Coventry," has a venerable history. The earliest record bcars date of 1743, and is herewith given. It was translated for us by Samuel W. Pennypacker, Esq., from the German Buedingische Sammlung, a Moravian publication of 1744, printed at Budingen. The Rev. Lischy, referred to in the following "call," was a very noted preacher in the early time, and published considerable controversial literature ; he is mentioned in Harbaugh's " Fathers of the Reformed Church." The document, in English, is as follows :

"Call of the elders of the Reformed Church to Brother Jacob Lischy to he their preacher :

"Since at our desire and request the Rev. Mr. Jacob Lischy preached a sermon as a Reformed prencher in our neighborbood and we found that the doctrine of his sermon coincided entirely with his declaration sent to us and we feel in our hearts and believe that his views are sincere, and find that it is very important and necessary for us to have such a preacher to look after our welfare and that of our children, we hereby request and call him the said Mr. Jacob Lischy to be the regular minister and preacher in our Community to admin- ister to us and our families the teaching of Jesus Christ and the Holy Sacrament. We have therefore very willingly and from our hearts hereto sigoed onr names :

" Coventry Township, April 10, 1743."#

The church was organized by the signing of the dis- cipline, in Philadelphia, May 19, 1743, which remained in force until June 11, 1837. It provided for " four elders, nominated by the minister and elected by a majority of votes, who are of respectable standing and among the whole congregation of good report," defined their duties, etc. It was signed by the following persons, who may therefore be considered as the first male members of the church :

"Philip Breitenstein, Eld .; Henry Styer, Elder; John Shonholtz, Eld .; Nicholas Karper, Eld .; John Shoder, John Fry, Christian Strohm, Valentine Scheidecker, Conrad Ression, Michael Thang, Simeon Shunk, Jacob Carl, John Neiler (Neydick ?), Casper Beener (Buechner?), Conrad Walter, Henry Miller, Wilhelm Adams, Ger- heardt Brownback (Bramhack ?), Henry Boener, John Carl, John Hubel, Conrad Seihert, Adam Stein, Henry Boehr, Frederick Funck, Jacob Freymann, John Paul, Henry Freys, Malechia Kosh (Melchior Koch ?), Sam'l Ash (Esch ?), John Clauer, Albert Ehrewein, Frederick Miller, Lorentz Puffenback."

The first log church here was built about 1750 or 1755. Frederick Sheeder writes, 1846, that he was in it in the winter of 1793 and 1794. It was of hewn logs, one and a half story, with gallery, broken roof, two four-light windows at each gable end, and two of the same size in the roof at each side, to light the gallery and pulpit. The lower story had twelve-light windows. The grave- yard, then small, was fenced close at the church with pales, and the rest with post and rail. The Rev. Minicus was the first preacher; after him the Rev. J. Philip Ley- dick, and in 1784 the Rev. Frederick Dalliker. In 1800 this present edifice was erected outside the graveyard, to enlarge the same, and J. Longecker gave the congregation more ground, and they surrounded all in one graveyard, and the churchyard was impaled. After this new church was built, and at the consecration, the Rev. Frederick Harmon came to officiate till 1821. Rev. John C. Guldin, son-in-law of the former, was the next. After him several have preached, but of short duration, the last being Rev. Folk. There is a school-house here, and school kept. Some of the names and dates upon the gravestones are as follows :

John Young, b. 1744, d. 1780, aged 37 years; George Young, son of John, b. 1773, d. 1821; Nicholas Keller, b. 1759, d. 1822; Philip Miller, b. 1750, d. 1809 ; Frederick Prizer, b. 1768, d. 1823; William Shuler, h. 1773, d. 1835; Henry Hoock, b. 1760, d. 1835; Henry Brumback, son of Garret, b. 1733, d. 1804 (he was born in this country) ; Jacob Mason, b. 1712, d. 1776; Frederiek Bingaman, son
