First Presbyterian Church

Ohio Historical Marker

This congregation was organized January 9, 1820 by 11 charter members. In 1837 the structure was completed on land reserved for religious purposes on the first Maumee plat. A British gun battery stood on the site in the War of 1812. Additions to the building were made in 1922, 1951, and 1968. Dr. Horatio Conant, pioneer teacher, merchant, physician, and politician, was for 59 years a member and officer.

Marker is at the intersection of East Broadway Street and Gibbs Street., on the left when traveling west on East Broadway Street.
