From Calvinists Incorporated by Anne Kelly Knowles:
While the Calvinistic Methodist chapels were located mainly in
Madison and Jefferson townships, the chapels built by Congregationalists
and other denominations were concentrated along the
periphery, particularly on the southeastern side of the settlement.
John and Elizabeth Jones, Ty'n Rhos, former members of the
Congregational chapel in Cilcennin, organized a seiat in their
home shortly after settling in Raccoon Township in 1838. In
1841 they deeded a parcel of their land for the settlement's first
Congregational chapel, appropriately named Tyn Rhos (today,
pronounced Tin Rohs).
