The Buffalo Presbyterian Church is a historic church in Montello, Wisconsin that was formally organized on June 6, 1858.[1] Its building, also known as the Wee White Kirk, was built in 1865[2][3][4] and is listed as Site Number 102 of the American Presbyterian/Reformed Historic Sites Registry.[2][5]
History
Scottish settlers organized the Buffalo Associate Presbyterian Church in 1852.[2] The church was founded on June 6, 1858 by Reverend S. H. Barteau with twelve members under the Presbyterian and Congregational General Convention of Wisconsin.[1] The church did not have a regular minister for six months until Barteau was hired for the subsequent six months.[1] The church was without a regular minister for several more months until Reverend A. C. Lathrop became minister for two years.[1] After the 18-month tenure of Reverend L. Parker from March 1862 to September 1863, there was no regular minister between September 1863 to June 1868.[1] The Presbytery of Wisconsin (under the United Presbyterian Church of North America) was founded here on October 12, 1864.[2] The congregation was dissolved in 1905.[2]
The church building was built in 1865.[2][3][4] The Buffalo United Presbyterian Cemetery Association maintains the property.[2][3]
