John Martin's Independent Old Order Mennonite Meetinghouse (Linwood, Ontario, Canada)
R.R. 3, Wallenstein, Ontario. Located 2 1/2 miles east of Linwood at 4401 Ament Line. Minister Enoch Bauman served in 1986 as a non-salaried congregational leader. The congregation has been affiliated with the David Martin Old Order Mennonites (now known as Independent Old Order Mennonite Church). The language of worship is German.
The congregation began services in 1917. David W. Martin is considered the founding leader of the group. The congregation originated through division from the Peel Old Order Mennonites over a desire for stricter discipline and doctrine. The meetinghouse was enlarged in 1999.
