DescriptionCHESTNUT RIDGE AND SCHELLSBURG UNION CHURCH AND CEMETERY.jpg
English: THE CHURCH WAS BUILT BY MEMBERS OF THE REFORMED AND LUTHERAN CHURCHES IN 1806. IT WAS USED BY BOTH CONGREGATIONS UNTIL 1843, AND THEN BY THE REFORMED CONGREGATION UNTIL 1853. THE FIRST BURIAL IN THE CEMETERY WAS IN 1806, WHILE THE CHURCH WAS BEING CONSTRUCTED. THE CHURCH WAS ORIGINALLY BUILT OF LOGS AND IN 1881 COVERED WITH WEATHERBOARDING. THE WEATHERBOARDING WAS REMOVED IN 1935, AND THE CHURCH WAS RESTORED IN THE EARLY 2000S
