History
The histories of assemblies at New Carlisle West and New Carlisle are intertwined. According to Don Huntington, the assembly at New Carlisle West began in 1907 in the home of his grandfather John (1860-1942). A hall, referred to as “the country meeting place”, was built in 1911 on property donated by Frank Smith. The assembly carried on here until sometime after 1938 when a new meeting place was secured in the town of New Carlisle, two miles away.
A Sunday School had already been going on in that location since 1931, upstairs over the Red & White grocery store operated by George and Charlotte (Lottie) Campbell. The Campbells later bought a store in the middle of town – expanded it and with it built the Gospel Hall next door. For a number of years, “the country meeting place” was no longer used; however, sometime in the 50s or 60s a small number of people did re-open the New Carlisle West Hall and began to meet there. Sunday School, DVBS and ‘special’ meetings were held there for a number of years. A newly-constructed assembly building was opened in New Carlisle on November 20, 1966 where the assembly has continued to function.
Additional names associated with these two assemblies over the early years include, among others, Chester and Emma Astles, Elmer Astles, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Craig, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Craig, May Coull, Ruth Coull, Arthur Dobson, Mr. and Mrs. Roland Hayes, Wilson and Hazel Huntington, Hiram and Lucy Huntington, Ronald Huntington, Leslie and Alta Main, Wilbur and Laura Mann, Mr. and Mrs. George Munroe, Florence Ray, Mamie Renouf, Hayword and Alice Sinclair, Hudson and Bertha Sinclair, Charlie and Lena Ward and Florence Ward.
