Apostolic Lutheran Church

The Original New Ipswich Apostolic Lutheran Church, built on Poor Farm Road opposite Wilson Hill Road, also housed the Evangelical Lutheran congregation for a time, although the faiths are unrelated. The church was built in about 1905 and was later razed to build a cow barn.

Newspaper Clipping

1901

Miss C. F Barr has recently purchased a fine upright case, with glass sides and front, for the minerals from Nevada presented by George D. Burton of Boston. The specimens have been arranged in the case, which is placed in the hallway.

Editors Note: I assume that this case is currently in the New Ipswich Historical Society but not sure where the Nevada minerals might be.
