| Waterford First Congregational Church | | 16 Plummer Hill Rd, | | Waterford, ME 04088 | | Phone : 207-583-6381 | | The Congregational Church in Waterford was founded by eighteen people under the ministerial leadership of the Reverend Lincoln Ripley on October 2, 1799. He was followed by the Reverend John A. Douglas, who served for 52 years, the church's longest pastorate.A meeting house was built on the church building's present site, Plummer Hill, in 1802. It was torn down in 1843 and the lumber was used to build the Town Hall. A distinctive New England style church building, similar to the present one, replaced it in 1837. This structure was destroyed by fire in 1928. The plaque, pulpit, and distinguished fixtures were among the items rescued from the fire. | | ADD A REVIEW |
