Philadelphia, Westminster Presbyterian Church

According to the Historical Directory of Presbyterian Churches and Presbyteries of Greater Philadelphia: Related to the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and its Antecedents, 1690-1990, by Kenneth A. Hammonds, the Westminster Presbyterian Church was first reported by the Presbytery of Philadelphia in 1853.  In 1906, it merged with the Greenway Presbyterian Church and moved from Broad Street to Fifty-Eighth and Chester Avenue.  In 1996 the church merged into the New Spirit Community Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.  

The society does not hold records from the Westminster Presbyterian Church.  The New Spirit Community Presbyterian Church is an active congregation and may have their records.  You may wish to contact them directly.
