  Subject: [Genealib] Religious abbreviation

  Does anyone know what religious denomination the abbreviation "Slim." refers to?  

  One of our patrons has an ancestor whose denomination was listed as "Slim." (1874 People's Guide to Hendricks County, IN.)  All the other denominations are standard-Baptist, Lutheran, Quaker, Methodist, Presbyterian.and then there is Slim.  The book has no reference to the abbreviations.

  Thanks,
