Here’s my email
Hello! I just found this wonderful list. Please don’t forget The Old Manila Church in Pleasant Grove, Utah. It was built in 1890 and dedicated in 1898 when it was officially paid off. It continued to be used as a meetinghouse for members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints until 2007. We purchased it in 2010 and renovated it into Stone Gate, a beautiful weddings and events center.
You are also missing The Northampton House in American Fork which was built in 1903.
Thanks for putting this amazing list together! 🙂

Hello Jacob. I think the church in Centerville should likely make make this list as well.
