[St. Matthew Lutheran Church and parsonage on Main Street in Sherrill, Iowa]

Loemker, Herman J., 1868-1937

Founded in 1855, the building in this image was constructed in 1903. The modest sized church faces the unpaved main street of Sherrill, Iowa. Arched windows framed in white wood, and a steeple with a cross on top may be seen. Steps lead to the front door. A two story white frame home, identified by the photographer as the parsonage for the Lutheran pastor and his family, has been built beside the church. Several large trees that have been heavily pruned are visible along the street. A telephone pole may be seen near the house.
