An early picture of Ebenezer Methodist Church, which later became United after Church Union in 1925.
This church started as a log building in the mid 1830s, built before the land was officially deeded to the church. It was replaced by a frame building in 1845-50, and in 1880 this brick church was built.

Back of photo reads: "Ebenezer Church and cemetery where Grandma and Grandpa Tindall are buried. [James]Tindall gave the land for the church and cemetery. Signed Murray Jelly."
Ebenezer United Church was Wesleyan Methodist before Church Union occurred. This building was demolished in the early 1960s and the congregation spread out to other local churches. The cemetery still stands today, and the space of the old church remains vacant.
