Eleventh Street Baptist Church
East 11th Street, between Third & Fourth Avenues
New York, N.Y. 10003
The Eleventh Street Baptist Church was organized by a small group of members in March 1843. Shortly thereafter the Rev. S. Corey became pastor, and within the same year the society built a brick edifice on Eleventh Street, between Third and Fourth Avenues. The congregation was also known as the Seventh Day Baptist Church. This church no longer exists. |
