Church Bell

​​The Methodist Church has a long history with the Williamsville Area. Records show that Wolf Creek Methodist congregation dates back to 1833 when it was one of twenty-seven points on the Athens circuit and then became part of the Fancy Creek Circuit in 1843.

The monument in the cemetery says the Church was erected in 1878 and razed in 1942. When the Church burned, the Bell came to Williamsville.

After many years in front of the Williamsville Community Center it has now been placed in the Outdoor Education Area at WPLM.
