Description
This photograph of the interior of theTallmadge Methodist Episcopal Church shows the congregation, including a group of young children seated at the front of the sanctuary.  The sanctuary was located on the second floor of the church, with Sunday school rooms on the first floor.

Tallmadge Methodist Episcopal Church, organized in 1825, met for several years in a log building near the Tallmadge Circle.  In 1833, the congregation built a simple wooden structure on Northeast Avenue which was replaced in 1875 by this two-story building at the corner of South Avenue near the site of the Bumpas Drug Emporium.  In 1962, a new church was constructed and in 1968, the church became the Tallmadge United Methodist Church.
