The Hedding Methodist Church at Swartwood had its origin soon after the
first settlement of the town. Religious meetings were held at private houses.
A class was formed about 1805. John Shoemaker, Emanual Ennis, Benjamin Ennis,
John Ennis and their wives were some of the first members. Benjamin and
Alexander Ennis erected a church which was first used as a place of free
worship. Ten years later it was purchased by the Methodist Society.
