Administrative history

The Ulverton United Church is the result of the amalgamation in 1925 of the Ulverton Congregational Church and the Ulverton Methodist Church (also known as the Wesleyan Methodist Church of the Township of Durham). The two churches, respectively constituted in 1837 and 1842, belonged to different circuits over the years. In 1925, the Methodist Church building was chosen for the new Ulverton United Church and the Congregational Church building was turned into a church hall. In 1963, the Lisgar United Church building was moved beside the Ulverton United Church as the new Church hall and the Congregational Church building, then in very bad condition, was sold to Mr. Riff and moved to his property nearby.
