In 1880 that a small group of Methodists living in the northern part of Marion County, Florida known as Shiloh, found it inconvenient to attend religious services at the Micanopy church and decided they would ask the preacher there, Rev. Smith, who had some Sunday afternoons free, to come out and preach for them one Sunday afternoon each month. The preacher agreed and came the following Sunday and preached in a vacant house belonging to Mary Geiger  in Shiloh.
