High Prairie Methodist Church Rebuilt After Fateful Twister

The High Prairie Methodist Church south of Atalissa, destroyed by a May 3 1863 tornado, was rebuilt that same summer. It became a regional religious and social center with early pastors including Daniel Cartwright and George Baumgartner and later served Muscatine circuits. The cemetery, weddings, homecomings, and social events sustained community life for 116 years.
