Notes

Zion Chapel United Methodist Church is a merged congregation made up of Zion United Methodist Church, Bucyrus and Liberty Chapel. The two congregations merged in 1982 after Liberty Chapel celebrated its centennial. The first Zion class was organized in 1853 and a frame structure was built and dedicated in 1856 as the Zion church of the Evangelical association. In 1894 a brick building was built to replace the original structure. The current church was built and dedicated in 1965. The land for the Liberty Chapel was purchased from the Henry Crall Jr. family in 1848. At this time the church was called the United Brethren in Christ. The first church was built in 1882. In 1956 Liberty Chapel joined with Biddle Evangelical United Brethren and became part of the Liberty Chapel Circuit. In 1960 the two churches were part of the Bucyrus East Circuit, then in 1965 the Biddle Church was discontinued and memberships were transferred to the Liberty Chapel Church.
