History and description

[edit]

The Bethel Methodist Episcopal Society of Snufftown was organized in 1800. Its first church was built in 1826. The name of the community and the church were changed to Stockholm in 1872 when the New Jersey Midland Railway built a station here. A steeple with belfry was added in 1967.[3]
