Scott Street Methodist Episcopal Church, South
Scott Street Methodist was at 530-32 Scott.  The cornerstone was laid on August 13, 1843, and the building was
torn down in 1895.  While Methodism in Covington split along North-South lines in the Civil War, this
congregation, after a number of detours, would eventually merge with Covington's First United Methodist Church.

The story of Immanuel Methodist, on 10th and Russell, is here, (pdf) and here. They were earlier at 717 Craig, and later abandoned Covington for Lakeside Park. The building at 10th and Russell is still standing as of 2025.
