It took on the name of Howerter's because Adam Howerter collected the most money through donations for building the church. In 1874 it was called St. Jacob's by Henry Weiksel. A third church was built in 1893 and named St. James. The church burned in 1943 and was relocated to Pitman in Schuylkill County.
