Looks like he was a Christian Union Pastor, and the URL above may give you a
clue as to the history behind the Christian Union church.

Subject: [INSTJOE] What was Pastor Elmer Ward Cole's denomination?
Elmer Ward Cole (b. 1873/74 in Iowa) performed the married James Turner
and
Loretta Moore in South Bend on 05 AUG 1922. The form calls him
simply a
"Minister of the Gospel".
His 1930 census entry places him at "320 So Main" (or possibly
"Mann") and
calls him a "preacher, Christian Church".
Does anyone know what denomination this was?
His 1920 entry (Huntington IN) calls him "minister, Church J".
His 1910 entry (Huntington IN) calls him "minister, Central Christian".
Any ideas?
Thanks!
