The end of St. Paul's


Marshalltown church demolished; memorial planned

St. Paul's Church in Marshalltown is gone.

A demolition crew dismantled the 166-year-old church towards the end of January and all that remains there now is the graveyard and a level patch of earth.

Anglican Bishop Rev. Frederick Hiltz deconsecrated the small white hilltop building on Nov. 17, 2006 after one last service.
