In the summer of 1953, the mansion was gifted by Mrs. Frank Hughson to Loudonville Community Church. Loudonville Community Church used the mansion to conduct services and Sunday school until 1959, when a new sanctuary was built adjacent to the mansion. From 1959 until the early 2000s, the mansion was used for Sunday school. The mansion was demolished to make way for Loudonville Community Church's new sanctuary, which was completed in June 2002.[3][better source needed]
