The Oak Grove Site (1818-1829) – For the next eleven years, 1818 to 1829, the congregation occupied the one-half acre of the Associated Reformed Church, known as the Union House, located about two miles east of Mt. Pleasant, with the present enclosed graveyard. This site is just south of the former site of the Old Oak Grove School, near the farm later owned by William Murray. The congregation enjoyed a luxury building in the form of a heated stove. In this spot sleep some of the Fathers and Mothers of Israel, including the first elders, Thomas McCune, Adam Dunlap, Alexander Maxwell, Hugh McConahey, and other names such as Fulton, McCleary, Smith, Kain, Haythornwait, McMechan, and Snodgrass. Rev. Anderson resigned at the end of this period in 1829 when (Squire) Thomas Mitchell, Robert (Nelson) Theaker, and James H. Drennen finally made the house of worship into the threshing machine.
