Description

This image shows a small, one story, white frame building surrounded by an iron fence. A small brick chimney protrudes from the roof. A small cemetery is visible to the right of the structure. The church appears to have been built along an unpaved road that follows the top of a ridge. Farmland and bluffs may be seen in the background. The photographer, a Methodist pastor, served this congregation. The photographer’s notes indicate the structure was near Rickardsville, Iowa in eastern Dubuque County.
