Historic Info
From Illinois Digital Archives (info provided by Libertyville-Mundelein Historical Society and Cook Memorial Public Library)--"Residence of Franklin P. Dymond on Division Street, later renamed Maple Avenue. The exact address is 130 West Maple Avenue. At the turn of the twentieth century, Franklin P. Dymond was president of the Lake County Bank and was an owner (with R. J. Proctor and W. T. Eaton) of the Lake County Gravel Company, both in Libertyville. He was also engaged in the mercantile business, first as a partner with E. W. Parkhurst and later with M. B Colby. According to the book Libertyville Illustrated, "Franklin P. Dymond was born in Jefferson, Cook county, Illinois, now a part of Chicago, in 1852. His father, William D. Dymond, was born in England in 1822, and came to Lake county in 1849. After living for six years in Jefferson, Ill., he returned to Lake County and purchased a fine farm near Libertyville, where he still lives. F. P. Dymond's wife is a sister of M. B. Colby, who was born in Vermont in 1849, coming to Libertyville with his father, E. W. Colby, in 1855."

From Illinois Digital Archives (info from Libertyville-Mundelein Historical Society and Cook Memorial Public Library)--"This church was organized in 1886. The first building was on East Church Street on land that had belonged to Horace Butler. The first pastor was Reverend George P. Folsom. In 1825, the congregation bought a lot at the corner of Douglas Street and Maple Avenue. The building erected thereon was dedicated in 1928 and is shown in this photograph. Over the years the building was added to and in 1955 the adjoining property was purchased. An education building was erected and dedicated in 1961."
