First Wesleyan Methodist Church ID: 9101 | This file appears in: Hickox Alley This section of the 1858 Map of Cuyahoga County shows Hickox Alley (East 3rd Street) between Euclid and Prospect Streets. On the southwest corner of Euclid, where Abram Hickox's blacksmith once sat, is the First Wesleyan Methodist Church, which was built there in 1840. The church's progressive stance on America's nineteenth-century slavery issue appears, according to county tax records, gave rise to Hickox Alley being also popularly referred to by a derogatory, racist name. The Wesleyan church occupied this corner until 1862 when it was moved to the corner of Ohio (Carnegie) and Brownell (East 14th) Streets. | Source: Cleveland Public Library, Digital Map Collection Download Original File SourceCleveland Public Library, Digital Map Collection "First Wesleyan Methodist Church" appears in: Hickox Alley
