BASKIN & BATTERY, HISTORICAL PUBLISHERS, CHICAGO 1881 – page 555 – In about 1852, the Whetstone Disciple Church was built, at a cost of $500. The society soon became quite strong, but the members soon found that Bucyrus, with its fine churches, was too near, many of the citizens who would otherwise have joined it preferring to attend those in the town. This fact became a serious drawback to the growth of the society. The building was occupied however, until four years ago when it was abandoned and during the past year, has been sold to private parties.
