1986: CHRIST P.E. CHURCH - HAMILTON AND WHITTAKER AVENUES CHAMBERSBURG

Alice Mount and Thomas E. Glover were married in Christ Protestant Episcopal Church back in 1923. They were not as active as they should have been, but in later life both returned to the church. My father came from to Trenton with his brother and 3 sisters from Longton in the Stoke On Trent area of Great Britain back in the teens. The church was built along the lines of a typical British small town church. The grand old edifice survived the years until the mid 1960's when a drop in attendance along with an unfortunate schism between progressive liberal Protestant Episcopal members and those who leaned toward the Conservative Anglican persuasion brought the church down. My family was conservative Anglicans and left the church.
