Presbyterian Church - Broughton, Illinois James and Minerva Wheeler gave property to Cumberland Presbyterian Church for sum of $1.00 on 23 September 1901. The building sold to school district 85, July 19, 1928 for $250.00. If used for any other reason than school, will revert back to Church property. James G. Wheeler died 1908, and his half brother contested the will re- the building. Mr. Anderson was Executor, then Dr Wheeler changed the Executor to Arthur Dawes.
