Joseph Long (bishop)
Joseph Long (1800–1869) was the third Bishop of the Evangelical Association, elected at the General Conference of 1843. He was born in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, a son of Kilian and Barbara Long.
==Early life==
For twelve years the family resided in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, then in 1817 settled on a tract of government land a few miles north of Lisbon, Ohio, in Columbiana County. Here the family was brought into the Evangelical Association by the first Circuit riders of the Canton, Ohio Circuit. Joseph was converted to the Christian faith in 1818.
Joseph married Catharine Hoy in 1826. They settled in the vicinity of his parental home, at what became known as Long's Crossing. This was Joseph's only dwelling place during his entire career. He was a typical pioneer minister, owning and operating a farm during most of his years as a Circuit Rider, Presiding Elder, and Bishop.
The Long home was a gateway between the East and West, and it stood as a typical wayside lodging place for ministers in their travels to and from conference sessions in Pennsylvania throughout this early pioneer period. It was a welcome home for the itinerants in Ohio and the meeting place of the Long Class for many years.
