Scope and Contents: Photocopies were gifted by the First United Methodist Church of Richmond and document the activities of the church from regular meetings of different boards as well the financial records throughout the last hundred and fifty years (1873-1980). This collection is also valuable for the research of genealogy of the Richmond/Berea Kentucky area as it contains baptismal, membership, as well class records of the church. This collection also contains the weekly bulletins from church services. Also note that there are gaps in the records and they are not current, so check with the church for more complete records.
