Episcopal Church
By Rev. Franklin W. Bartlett
The Parish of St. Mary's was first organized in 1 85 1, under the auspices of the Rev. Dr. Josiah Perry, who died after four or five months of faithful service. We ascertain from the records that an association was created April 10, 1 851, to form a parish in Northfield, for the purpose of supporting the gospel ministry and maintaining public worship, in conformity with the constitution and canons of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Vermont.
The name adopted was St. Mary's Parish, Northfield. The Articles of Association were signed by:
|
Samuel W. Thayer Jr.
Edward H. Williams H. H. Camp James C. B. Thayer F. E. Smith E. G. Babcock W. H. Cornwell |
Perley Belknap
James Moore H. L. Briggs Isaiah Shaw J. H. Glennie Benj. Cridland J. N. Mack |
Riverius Camp Jr.
Ozro Foster O. H. Finley Peyton Booth John Pollock D. P. Burns |
Nearly all of these have since removed, or are deceased.
