I want to thank you for putting this Beech Church History online as
I've been reading it with interest. I can remember as a small child
my mother telling me how my father belonged to the White River
Conference. Mom & Dad were married in 1934 by Rev.
Todd and his first church was at Blackhawk over by Riley
right south of Terre Haute. Mother used to tell me in those days they didn't
have much money so a lot of times the people paid them by giving them eggs.
Mom
didn't think that maybe she could trade them at the store
for other things so they ate eggs for breakfast, lunch &
dinner. My father served quite a few of those 3-5 church
circuits while I was small. Again thanks for the memories
especially of the area he served in and about Dr. Snyder
and Rev. Todd because I'd heard both names. I have a
photo of the one that married my folks. Jan Baldwin in
