The Free Christian Church was founded on May 7, 1846, by ink factory owner William Donald. It was formed by Andover residents who did not feel members of other churches in Andover were making a strong stand against slavery. Free Christian obtained the Elm Street property in 1903. 
Rev. Jack L. Daniel was pastor of the Free Christian Church for 35 years, from 1977 to June, 2012.  In 1977, the church had 75 members.  In 2012, the church had 1,200 members.


The Andover-By-Pass (Route 125) was constructed to reduce traffic on the Phillips campus. Academy trustees under the leadership of Alum Thomas Cochran bought the land and the state constructed the road, which opened in 1931.
