Cockley's Union House, once the seat of a Mennonite (Mennonite Church) congregation, now extinct, was built by Lancaster Conference Mennonites together with non-Mennonites in 1848 near Michael Cochlin's about six miles (10 km) south of Churchtown, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, the place near where Preacher Christian Herr settled. The Cumberland County ministers of the Lancaster Mennonite Conference took care of the services at this place. The peak membership was about 50.
