Add PhotosFounded in 1837, the church has undergone many name changes over the years. According to Churches and Cemeteries of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania A Complete Guide by A. Hunter Rineer, Jr., Aaron Quimby provided land to the trustees of the African Union Church (now known as the Union American Methodist Episcopal Church). The land adjoined the land of Jarrett Rigby. The church then became known as the Rigby Union AME Church. A cemetery adjoined the meetinghouse. In 1876 land was deeded at Arcadia and a new church was built.
This new church would, no doubt, be the one referred to as Mount Holly or Arcadia. It is called Mount Sinai Union AME Church.
The Arcadia Station was served by the Lancaster Oxford and Southern Line. The line ran just north of Arcadia Trace Road. The station was located between Cherry Hill Road to the east and Peach Bottom Road to the west. It is located in Fulton Township.
