There is precious little information on New Harmony Methodist Church in Hart County. There isn't even agreement on how old the building is. A congregation goes all the way back to the 1820's before there was a Hart County. The structure goes back to the 1870's or earlier. In it's history, there have been times when the church sat unused. It's known that the church was on the Howell Circuit in 1859 but in 1877, it was not on the preaching circuit. In 1961 Mount Zion Methodist church's cemetery was moved to New Harmony. The church has been pretty much unused for at least 20 years.
