Chapel, Nile

Posted on June 13, 2015 by Monissa Whiteley

A photo at the Evandale History Society says this was a chapel of ease. I cannot find anything else about it, other than it might have been used for dances etc. These photos are from 2008. There are some from 2011 at the bottom.

Photo c.1970

There was a Wesleyan chapel at Nile (see below). Is this the same building?

Church, Legerwood

Posted on April 10, 2015 by Monissa Whiteley

In 2005, this was the B.L.R Community Church, part of the Uniting Church. I am not sure what it was originally built as. There was a Presbyterian Church at Legerwood, but there are also references to a Methodist Chruch.

For sale in 2010 (interior photos).

Need help?

I am available to do research at a reasonable rate. Details here.

Also, if you'd like a photo of a headstone, plaque or church, I might be able to help there. Details here.

Questions?

To contact a Catholic church start here
To contact a Uniting church (formerly Methodist, Congregational & some Presbyterian) start here

For church records (baptisms, burials and marriages), start with the State Library
For cemetery records also start with the State Library
And if you find the library pages are bit confusing, contact them directly. They're very helpful.

About

Church Photos
The aim of this project is to get a photo of every church in Tasmania, with a very broad definition of "church". Some of these photos
have been taken from the window of a car in passing. Some of these have been taken when was I able to walk through the building and take my time over composing photos. Most of them are somewhere in between :)

I am working through an eleven year backlog of photos (currently up to 2009), trying to add some every night.

Cemetery Photos
I also take photos of headstones around churches and cemeteries, because they're interesting. There is no attempt to provide photos of all headstones in any cemetery I visit because there are other sites that do that better page. If there only a small number of headstones, I'll try to take photos of all of them but otherwise it's just whatever catches my attention. I was including transcriptions in the posts, but I found it was taking too much time (hours for each post) and I'd rather put that time into putting up church photos.

(Although I'm happy to include transcription that might be useful or of interest to someone else. I just don't want to spend hours doing it for no purpose. So if you're interested in what a particular stone or two says, ask and I'll see if I can read it on the larger original. Although note the comment about comments above. The spam filters have sharp teeth.)
