Ervay Street Methodist Church Fire (1964)

Duration: 0:04:44

Year Published: 1964

Sound: silent

Description: In this 1964 fotoage, firefighers with the Dallas Fire Department battle flames and billowing smoke while working to extinguish a fire at the Ervay Street Methodist Church in South Dallas. The church suffered damages from two fires that year: one in January due to arson and one in March from unknown causes. As the church appears to have been in use prior to the blaze, we can deduce that this footage documents the first fire.
