Medina District 1832

Services alternated between two meetinghouses, Lower Mennonite (now Maple Hill) and Guilford. Organization of the congregation was effected by Bishop Jacob Nold of Columbiana County, Ohio. The first two ministers were William Overholtzer and Matthias Tintsman. Jacob Nold ordained Abraham Rohrer to the office of bishop in 1833. Tintsman had formerly lived in Columbiana County near Bishop Nold. During the Wisler Division in 1872 the majority of the membership followed Abraham Rohrer into the Ohio-Indiana Conference of the Wisler Mennonite Church. In fact, the Ohio-Indiana Conference was organized by Bishop Jacob Wisler at the home of Preacher Henry Beery. The half-dozen members who refused to secede from the Ohio Mennonite Conference organized in 1873 and continued using the Lower Mennonite meetinghouse until 1893 when they built the Bethel meetinghouse. See Guilford, Lower Mennonite, and Bethel.
