Presbyterian congregations of the city beyond First Presbyterian (carried whole in the religion record) · 1844–2011
Westminster (1844–2000): The city's second Presbyterian church was organized in 1844 as Second Presbyterian and renamed Westminster Presbyterian Church in 1894. It stood through the whole life of the city's Presbyterian system and ended it by merger: in 2000 Westminster and North Highlands Presbyterian Church united to form Grace Presbyterian Church.
Third (1867–1995) and Calvary Third (1995–2011): Third Presbyterian Church was organized in 1867 — one of the four Presbyterian congregations the Sentinel counted in 1904, its pastor then the Rev. J. A. P. McGaw. In 1995 Third merged with Calvary Presbyterian Church to form Calvary Third Presbyterian Church, which itself closed in 2011.
Bethany (1893–1997), Westfield (1907–1997), and United Faith (1997– ): Bethany Presbyterian Church was organized in 1893; the Sentinel's 1904 roster names its pastor, the Rev. Dubois H. Loux. Westfield Presbyterian Church followed in 1907. In 1997 the two merged to form United Faith Presbyterian Church, which the genealogical society's list carries active.
