Founded in 1827, the early church edifice was connected to the Underground Railroad in Rochester. Hester C. Jeffrey was an active member of the church, Susan B. Anthony gave one of her last public addresses in the church, and Frederick Douglass edited his abolitionist papers, The North Star, from presses set up in the church basement.
Notes: First monument to SBA after her death. Stained-glass window, with others to Frederick Douglass (now missing), Harriet Tubman (now missing), et al.
