Oak
Grove Wesleyan Methodist Church, in Fairview Township, was
organized July 30, 1862. Their house of worship, known as Oak Grove
Chapel, was built the same year, and stands on land purchased of William
Bland. This congregation sprang from the Methodist Episcopal
Church, the separation occurring on account of radical differences on
the slavery question.

History of Mercer County, 1888, page 526.
