Mount Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church Photographs from National Register collection Mount Zion Cemetery, adjacent to the church, contains more than 200 graves. While most of these graves are unmarked, the oldest marker is from 1861. Photograph from National Register collection By the end of the Revolutionary War, many Quakers and anti-slavery sympathizers had set aside land for freed slaves. African-American hamlets were established in secluded areas on portions of Quaker land throughout western New Jersey. Small Gloucester, also known as Dutchtown, emerged in the early 19th century as one of these African-American settlements. One well-known Underground Railroad route was the Greenwich Line that began in the hamlet of Springtown , led 25 miles north to Small Gloucester, and continued north to Mount Holly, Burlington and Jersey City, New Jersey. The communities along this route were ideal stations on the Underground Railroad as they were situated about 20 miles apart, surrounded by Quaker land which was often swampy or dense woods, and inhabited by many free African-Americans. For more than 10 years, Harriet Tubman helped operate this line.

Five Views: An Ethnic Historic Site Survey for California MENU Contents Introduction A.M.E. Church Education ... Selected References A History of Black Americans in California: HISTORIC SITES Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church Site Sacramento, Sacramento County The County of Sacramento now owns the lot in Sacramento on which the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) Church stood. This site represents the location of the first organized political activity by Blacks in California. Historically, the Black church has played a critical role as both sectarian and secular institution. While serving as a place of worship, the church was also a principal vehicle for political activity. Through its seminaries and church schools, the African Methodist Episcopal, the Methodist Episcopal Zion, and the American Baptist churches developed a cadre of educated and trained leaders even before the end of slavery. California benefited from this tradition of leadership which began in the eastern United States. Numbered among the earliest Black settlers were outspoken clergymen who actively organized and supported educational and political efforts to improve the status of their people. California's first Black church was organized the year the state was admitted to the Union in 1850. Not only did California have the distinction of having the first African Methodist Episcopal church in the western United States, but the state also hosted the first Black church. Organized in the Sacramento home of Daniel Blue, the first Black church was named the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1851, after a special vote of the congregation and a petition to the Indiana Conference for admission into the African Methodist Episcopal, the name was changed to the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church. Later in the nineteenth century, the name was changed to the St. Andrews African Methodist Episcopal Church.

Life in the 1880's The African Methodist Episcopal, African Methodist Episcopal, Zion and the Christian Methodist Episcopal Churches in Indiana Sheryl D. Vanderstel The first of the three main black Methodist denominations began in Philadelphia with Rev. Richard Allen. Born into slavery and converted to Methodism at the age of 17, Allen almost immediately knew he was called to preach. His owner allowed Richard and his brother to join a Methodist class meeting, led by Delaware farmer John Gray. Allen's owner was so taken by Allen's sincerity that he next allowed interracial religious gathering on his property. Finally, converted to Methodism himself, Allen's owner arranged for the Allen brother to buy their freedom. When Allen won his legal victory he issued an invitation to other black ME congregations to assemble in convention. There were sixteen representatives at the convention in Philadelphia, representing churches in Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland, which joined together to form the African Methodist Episcopal Church in April 1816. They immediately elected Richard Allen as their first bishop. The group determined to adhere to traditional Methodism and adopted a Discipline almost identical to the ME Discipline. The Methodist church had a system of licensed elders, deacons, lay ministers and exhorters to assist in the local church work. This system was adopted not only by the AME but also later by the AME Zion and CME denominations. The bishop headed the church body, which was divided into conferences; each led by a bishop. Each conference then was subdivided into districts. Within a district there could be several circuits. A presiding elder directed the work of the conference. Ordained deacons were the senior circuit riders or local congregational ministers.
