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.
