For Sale – A Used Church

Janesville Methodist Church, 1905–Prentice Holmes

The Janesville Methodist Church had a very short time span, of just thirty years. By 1928, it had been abandoned. In January 1946, the Trustees of the Susanville Methodist Church, who had inherited the old church put it up for sale. The demand for buildings in the region was  extremely high due to the conclusion of World War II. The trustees asked for bids to be submitted by February 4, 1946. Unfortunately, I have not been able to ascertain what transpired since then.
