A small church Located at Mount Airy was erected, according to the most reli-able information, in 1841, by the efforts of the Pro-testant Methodists, a small number of whom lived iif the locality at the time. There was an understand-ing, however, that the church was to be open to the ministers of all evangelical denominations. The ground was donated by Caleb McCord. There are no Protestant Methodists at present about Mount Airy, but services are held once a month by the pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church at Croton. A small, but flourishing Sunday-school meets at the church every Sunday afternoon. The present trustees (1884) are Daniel Haines and Jacob Wright.
