In 1865, German-speaking Protestants of Kelleys Island
organized the German Reformed Church located on Division Street. After it
was vacated in 1956, it suffered from neglect and deterioration.
The Kelleys Island Historical Association was formed in
1980 with the primary objective to purchase the "Old Stone
Church". After much diligent negotiating with then, the United
Church of Christ, the ownership became the property of KIHA in 1986.
Repairs and maintenance to the church have been ongoing.
Our challenge now is to build a new "haul shed" to replace the
one that once stood near the "Old Stone Church" that was used
to house the horses and buggies while parishioners attended services.
This will be our new museum.
