Biographical history

St. Andrew's United Church in Enderby was formed in 1925 from the union of Enderby Methodist Church, which was established sometime in the 1880's, and St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, which was established ca. 1886. Enderby Methodist Church was part of the larger Spallumcheen Mission until 1892 when Spallumcheen was divided into Enderby and Vernon Missions. The Enderby Mission consisted of various appointments: Enderby, Armstrong, Knob Hill, Lansdowne and Round Prairie. In 1911 Armstrong was separated from Enderby. Similar to the Methodist organization which, however, was centred more at Armstrong, St. Andrew's Presbyterian was part of the Spallumcheen Presbyterian Congregation which, in 1911, also was divided into Enderby and Armstrong. The Enderby Presbyterian work also included a congregation at Hullcar. After union in 1925 the Enderby Pastoral Charge consisted of various connected points besides St. Andrew's: Deep Creek, Hullcar, Grandview Bench, Mara and Kingfisher. By 1970 the charge consisted of congregations at Sicamous and Malakwa, and since 1977 Enderby has consisted of St.Andrew's only. Since 1925 the charge has belonged to Kamloops-Okanagan Presbytery.

Custodial history

The Presbyterian and Methodist Church records were found in the attic of the church and given to church member Ellen Jeffers for safekeeping. In 1989, when the museum first opened, the United Church chose to donate the records to the Enderby & District Museum.
