The original State Road, ME ACC:
The church was dedicated October 12, 1902, with a sermon by Elder E. H. Wyeth of Presque Isle. At the time there were no pews but some were bought in 1903. The building was set just above ground level and consisted of one large room heated by a wood stove at the back with its pipe running the length of the building. A small room filled the back corner where the coat rack was later located. Services were conducted by various ministers of the area including George Osman of Presque Isle, Elder William Churchill, Charles King, Milton Burtt, and Benjamin Corliss. By January 1909 the church voted to pay Pastor Osman not less than $4.00 a service which would be held every other Sunday.
