Moments Project – The Centre Congregational Church
Centre Congregational Church Brattleboro Vermont 1842.
The Brattleborough Village Meeting House Society was organized in 1814 to build a meeting house in the East Village. The population center of Brattleboro that had been in the West Village, moved closer to the Connecticut River. The Common was purchased in 1815 for $300. The first meeting house was built for $4,000 to $5,000 and dedicated in Aug. 1816. The decision was made to tear down the original meetinghouse and rebuild on Main Street at the ‘Orchard’. The new church was dedicated on Jan. 11, 1843.
