Summary

Description
English: In 1844, Richard and Mallie Lloyd-Jones and their seven children left rural Wales seeking religious freedom and opportunity in America. Unitarians by belief, farmers by occupation, their hardships were the hardships of many immigrants. One child died on the rigorous route to Wisconsin. Four more children, American-born, joined the clan. In the mid-1860's the Lloyd-Joneses settled in rural Wyoming Valley, Wisconsin, to work, worship, and struggle towards the American dream.

Two decades later, a subscription was taken to build this small family chapel next to "the Grove", the shaded area where they had celebrated services and gatherings since settling the Valley.

Completed in 1886, Unity Chapel combined the talents of famed Chicago architect, Joseph Lyman Silsbee, and a "young boy architect of the family (who) looked after its interior." That "boy architect" was Frank Lloyd Wright.
