Title A name given to the resource William Rayburn Collection Subject The topic of the resource Rayburn, William H., 1836-1930 Evangelists Clergy Description An account of the resource William Rayburn was the founder of a religious sect that traces its beginnings to Williamsville, Illinois. Rayburn was a married minister in the Methodist Church in Williamsville in the 1860s when he abandoned his family and had an open relationship with another woman. After the Methodist Church deposed Rayburn, he began preaching his own doctrine and building a group of followers including Reverend C. A. Obenshain, the man the Methodist Church sent to Williamsville to speak against Rayburn.  Rayburn and Obenshain established their sect's headquarters but were not accepted by the local residents. Raybern and Obenshain promoted their beliefs locally and nationally, receiving attention from the New York Times in 1883 for their ceremonies revolving around promiscuity. In 1893 Rayburn built a large memorial to "Mattie S. Rayburn" in Oak Ridge Cemetery in Springfield, Illinois, which has led to confusion over the identity of the woman buried there and whether she was his wife or his companion. Rayburn died in 1930 and is buried in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Photographs in this collection include several portraits of William H. Rayburn. Still Image A static visual representation.
