Jacob's was built in 1807 in Upper Mahanoy Township. It took on the name of Howerter's because Adam Howerter collected the most money through donations for building the church. In 1874 it was called St. Jacob's by Henry Weiksel. A third church was built in 1893 and named St. James. The church burned in 1943 and was relocated to Pitman in Schuylkill County.

When gathering records for publication you hope you have all the records that are available. Occasionally additional records are found later, as is the case here. Early History of St. Pauls (Summer Hill) Lutheran and Reformed Church including Tombstone Inscriptions and Burial Records was published in 1989. Some time later Schuylkill Roots was able to get a list of Baptisms from this church dating from 1788 to 1812 and these were presented on pages 308 thru 339 of Schuylkill County, PA Archives, Volume 1, published in 1995. Now after more searching theyve found the rest of the Baptisms (beginning in 1813 through 1868) as well as some added information. This book includes a combination of a short history, the early Baptisms, Death Records (1803-1863) all records available and useful to the genealogist. In this record the communicants, confirmations and the minutes have been omitted. It stands alone from the other St. Pauls (Summer Hill) records. Index.
