From the Brush Creek ircuit the charges were Chillicothd, Hillsboro, White Oak, West Union and Washington, C. H., the James­ town and CedarviHe work a part of ’he Washington C. H,-. Circuit. In 1831 a Wilmington Circuit was'form­ ed, which was part of this circuit, to 1803 these societies were attached to the Springfield charge.
