Early History of the Marshall Baptist Church
A Sunday observance at the Baptist church recounts the 1840 origins of the Marshall and Marengo congregation. The piece details the founding meetings, key members like N. Sabter, Lodden, Hendryx, and Lusk, and the early struggles to secure a house of worship, including building campaigns, debt, and pastorates through the 1860s.
