FALLING SPRING PRESBYTERIAN GRAVEYARD
Chambersburg, Penna.
pg. 244
The "Falling Spring: was the name given by
pioneer Benjamin Chambers, to the
place of his settlement, at the Confluence of
the large spring, with the Conococheague Creek.
Col. Chambers, himself a
Presbyterian, made an early appropriation of
some suitable ground for a GRAVEYARD SCHOOL
HOUSE and PLACE of Cedar Grove on the bank of
the creek, on which the present church stands.
In this grove, and near the spot which the
present church occupies, there was erected a
small log building, which was used for the
double purpose of a school house and place of
worship, and which Records of Presbytery show to
have been in the year 1739. It was of
logs, which door on eastern and southern sides,
and lighted by long narrow windows the width of
two small panes of glass. When this
building was not of sufficient capacity for all
who wished to worship in it, the congregation
abandoned it for the time in favour of the
saw-mill of Col. Chambers, which
stood on the bank of the creek, on what was
known as "The Island" surrounded by a lovely
green plot. On that grassy space the
gathered crowd seated themselves and received
with interest and eagerness the messages of God
from his commissioned ambassador.
