First Presbyterian Church formed in 1821 with both black and white members. However, congregants of color were relegated to the balcony or basement, so by the 1860s, black members started their own house of worship -- First United Presbyterian Church.
Recently, officials at First Presbyterian Church reached out to First United to hold their online Easter service together.
