METHODIST CHURCH
Wyman, Iowa
Transcribed by Jackie Terry, August 12, 2016For years the members of the Methodist Episcopal Church held services in the Jackson school house. Later the Hoosier Bend school was built and this was used for worship. Ministers usually came here in the afternoon as it was in connection with the Winfield charge. Later they were transferred to the Crawfordsville charge. In 1895 a church was built in Wyman, the railroad giving the land for the site. Rev. Barker was minister at this time. About 1913 the circuit was discontinued and the members were transferred to the Winfield and Crawfordsville Churches. The church was sold at public auction to Clyde Beauchamp, who built his home from the structure.
