St. Paul United Methodist:

This church dates back to the 1830's when an organization of the Methodist society began in the home of Squire Boardman at Clinton. This continued in various homes and school about the community. The first minister to the church was a Methodist circuit rider. When the membership greatly increased, they built a one room frame structure, part of he present church. This was built through donated money and labor on land given to them by Reverend Ferris in 1870. He served the church for many years. Those that donated money were given a lot in the cemetery so many are buried in the shadow of the building that lives as a witness to their dedication.
