Clear Lake Church
In 1879 a part of the congregation that was coming to Grand Prairie from the west and south and had to cross the Long Tom River, moved into the Clear Lake School House and later built nearby, adopting the name Clear Lake Church. The building was just south of the school which we assume was near the intersection with Clear Lake Road on Green Hill Drive.
Organized by Peter Rogers Burnett, those members living the other direction, near Junction City, established a separate congregation under the leadership of James Bushnell, brother of Helen Adkins. William B. Barger and his wife Elizabeth Mulkey Barger were charter members.
