A 1950 photograph of Jacob’s White Church in Pine Grove Township, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania.
The photo caption reads:
Jacob’s White Church in Swatara Valley was established by a group of early settlers who came here from below the Blue Mountains, crossing the mountains by old Indian trails, and by way of Swatara Gap. Its founders were mostly immigrants from Germany and Switzerland who had fled from the old country during times of religious persecutions. This modest country church, located two miles west of Pine Grove, is among the oldest in Pennsylvania and will be host to hundreds of visitors during its Homecoming observance on Saturday, September 2 [1950].
