In June 1831, he moved to Holmes Co, Ohio, and settled in Walnut Creek Twp, which, at that time was but sparsely settled. There were a few Mennonite families living there, with a minister by the name of Mishler, but were without a church, Mr Kulp organized a church, and a log meeting- house was built on the farm of his nephew, Jacob Kulp. A few years later Rev Jacob Showalter arrived from Pa, and other Mennonite families emigrated thither from the eastern and western parts of Pennsylvania, and the church prospered until Mr Kulp's death.
