Description
The Wilbur Presbyterian Church is located in the present day ghost town of Sherman, Washington, Sherman, Washington, was a community in Lincoln County, located north of Wilbur, Washington, USA. Sherman, like many small towns in eastern Washington, sprang up in the agricultural boom of the 1880s and 1890s, spawned by the federal government's many homesteading acts. As the price of wheat fell, the average farm size increased, and better vehicles and roads made traveling easier, Sherman was abandoned. A beautiful church and a cemetery are all that remain
