Subject: Historic Church Lighting Question

Good afternoon,

I am gathering information for Grey Roots on the types of lighting used in churches from 1900 - 1930, as we are building a replica church on site at Grey Roots Museum and Archives beginning this year and are at the point that we are beginning to source fixtures and finishes for the architectural plans.  

Does anyone have interior shots of photos of small or rural church interiors from this period, or catalogues of church furnishings that may include lighting options?  If so, I would love to receive scans or emails of such with the date and location.

This will be a small rural church and I know that historically, electricity was not installed in some (most) rural village churches until as late as the 1940s or 50s, but with today's building codes, and as this is a new build, we must look for something simple that may have been acceptable in that era. 

Thank you,
