HORN MEMORIAL CHURCH
Kathie Kline has submitted these photos and facts about the
Horn Church which is located near Pleasantville, in West
St. Clair Twp. The church was organized in about 1820. It was
named for the Horn Family who moved to the Bedford Co., Pa. area (1797-1800)
from Loudoun Co., Virginia.
