Abstract: |
The First Baptist Church of Greater Cleveland was founded in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1833 as the First Baptist Church of Cleveland. In 1887 Idaka Memorial Baptist Church merged with First Baptist. In 1919 a group from First Baptist formed the Cleveland Heights Baptist Church. The two congregations merged in 1928 to form the First Baptist Church of Greater Cleveland, located in Cleveland Heights. The collection consists of church histories, constitutions, minutes, membership information, resolutions, reports, financial records, church bulletins, correspondence, information on the consolidation with Cleveland Heights Baptist Church, records of church organizations, records of other churches, and architectural drawings. |
