Santa Fe Christian Church

About 1855 a house of worship, now occupied by this body, was completed at a cost of nearly $2,500. Its organization was effected June 17, 1838, when Daniel M. Swain, Enoch Fruit, Samuel Gilbert, Jane Camplin, William Donaldson, Berry Tally, Margaret Fruit, Sally Tally, Eleanor B. Davis, B. F. Davis, Jacob Cox, Cassandra Cox and Lovel Crigler were those comprising the first members. This number has been increased by additions until it has reached 170. Elders Henry Thomas, Alfred Wilson, Errett, David Davis, John A. Brooks, W. G. Sniber and W. G. Barker have filled this pulpit at different times. James B. Davis is superintendent of the Sabbath-school, having an average attendance of 50. W. M. Houston is clerk of the church.
