A community effort is underway in Ridgeville Corners to restore an historic gem in the village.The old Congregational Church that sits along the Ridge Road dates back to before the Civil War.Not only does it contain memorabilia from one of Henry County’s first church buildings; but it also served as a haven for slaves on their path to freedom from the south, along the Underground Railroad.
