Hawthorn Borough Council meets the 1st Tuesday of every month at 7pm @ Borough Building on 3784 Main Street. Mailing Address: P.0. Box 52 Hawthorn PA 16230

Established in 1916, Hawthorn PA is small, rural community in western Pennsylvania. Our location, south of I-80 in Clarion County, between New Bethlehem and Brookville, allows our Town to evoke a quiet and comfortable charm and a rural quality of life while still being able to access quality entertainment, business, and industry.

Our beautiful and scenic natural resources boast plenty of recreational activities while still maintaining respite from life’s pressures and a place to seek solitude. The Redbank Valley Trails and waterways were once home to railroads/industrial mills, but now provide a place for year round recreational activities…including fishing, hunting, boating, camping, biking, hiking, and much more!

Our community is tied together through traditional family values and a sincere sense of community. Our municipality is proud of its citizens and the way they demonstrate their willingness to invest in the future of their community.

The exact date of the building of the church is not known, but an item from the quarterly conference minutes of April 12, 1873, mentions securing lumber; and in the May 2, 1874 quarterly conference minutes, it states that the meeting was held in the Hawthorn Calvary Church. It is agreed that the church was dedicated about December 1, 1873.

The ground on which the church was built was deeded to Daniel Haupt and Jacob Shick for $250.00. Later another lot was deeded to J.C. Mohney and James C. McKelley for $250.00, and it was on this lot that the parsonage was built about 1875.

In 1893, when a division occurred in the Evangelical Association, the conference to which West Millville belonged, joined its forces with the United Evangelical Church. In 1922, the two bodies again merged to form the Evangelical Church.

In 1913, the church was remodeled for the first time at a cost of $2,412.00. The Mission Band raised $102.00 during the year and stood in first place at the W.M.S. Convention.

In 1915, the stained windows were placed in the sanctuary.

In 1916, at the annual conference, Hawthorn was separated from the Oak Ridge and Fairmount City Churches.

In 1925, the church was wired for electricity.

In 1926, the basement was added with a kitchen and heating plant.

In 1939, the church was carpeted for the first time and a garage was built for the parsonage.
