CONGREQATIONAL CHURCH TO RECEIVE HISTORIC PLAQUE
Sunday, October 17th, the McHenry County Historical Society will present its 9th historic plaque to the congrega¬ tion of the First Congregational ' Church of Huntley, 9 North Church St., during the 10:30 worship service.
Entwined with the history of Huntley, the history of the First Congregational Church had its origins back in 1852, just one year after the Chicago and Northwestem Railroad reached Huntley station, the settlement Thomas Stillwetl Huntley had begun in the late 1840's. Meeting in the school house at first, the congregation finally began work on the church in 1863. The church still stands today and was actually built according to plans decided upon at a meeting on June 29, 1853. The records of that time showed two doors, one on each side of the church that led from the entry to the main room.' The church was heated by two round stoves that stood on each side of the doors and long stove pipes ran from the stoves to the chimneys at the back of the church building. Could they be seen, one would find that the sills under the church are hand-hewn 8x8's. some of them 30 feet long and cut locally. Continued on Page 2
