BROWNFIELD, Maine — A building once dubbed “the smallest church in the world” was adopted by the Brownfield Historical Society last Thursday.
West Brownfield resident Fran Parsons, whose grandparents (Deacon Harry Barton and Estelle Barton) built the church around 1915, signed over the deed to the Historical Society on Nov. 13, at the Law Office of Craig L. Holden in Fryeburg. The church is located in the woods off Porter Road in West Brownfield.
