This image is from a postcard dated January 18, 1910, and was sent from Oakfield to Penn Yann, NY. The postcard was published by Farley Porter, Jr. of Elba, NY. The postcard states that the buildings are the "M.E." church and parsonage. Actually, the Oakfield Methodist Episcopal Church was formed in 1832 and later disbanded. The building as it exists today is the United Methodist Church, formed in 1829, and located at the southwest corner of the intersection of South Main with Webber Avenue. Its address is 4 South Main St. Unfortunately, someone has apparently taken a pencil and outlined the roofline of the church, in this otherwise beautiful color image.
