CHURCHES. 

 REGULAR BAPTIST CHURCH. 



The first steps were taken towards organizing a church 

 May 5, 1835, at a meeting of the surrounding Baptist 

 Churches, in a conference held at the house of Kufus Fuller. 

 Rev. Edward Murdock acted as moderator, and Rufus 

 Fuller was chosen clerk. The early record is lost, but the 

 name of Lucinda Harrington is still remembered as one of 

 the first members, and a leading spirit in the church. In 

 1836 a council was held in a barn. Rev. J. B. Chase being 

 moderator, and David Simson clerk. This meeting re- 

 sulted in the church being accepted by the Association. 

 Bradshaw White was the first deacon ; Rufus Fuller, clerk. 

 The pastors of this society have been : 1836-45, Edward 

 Murdock ; 1845-47, Rev. Byron Hunt. Afterwards, Rev. 

 J. M. Wade, Rev. Edward Murdock, 1866-68 ; Rev. Ira 

 Thomas, 1868-72; Rev. W. P. Omans, 1872; to the 

 present time, Rev. Hudson Seeley. E. J. Hunt and Joshua 

 Murdock were ordained deacons in 1868. Present officers : 

 E. C. Picket, Clerk ; Joshua Murdock, E. J. Hunt, and 

 Bradshaw White, Deacons. Of the 115 present members, 

 the greater portion live in the town of Troupsburgh, together 

 with all the officers named, but the new church is located 

 just over the line, in Pennsylvania. 



The country having become more generally settled soon 

 after, meetings were also held in the " Chenango Settlement," 

 in the east part of the town, at the house of John S. Miller 

 and others, until 1839, when the school-house was built in 

 District No. 4, and occupied by the society. April 7, 

 1855, a meeting was held at the school-house, with Elder 

 Warren Rice, Moderator, and Ami Hayes, Clerk, at which 

 it was resolved to organize a separate society, to be called 

 the 



EAST TROUPSBURGH BAPTIST CHURCH. 



Wm. Holmes and Parley B. Miller, father of the present 

 clerk, were appointed deacons. Among the first members 

 were Warren Rice and wife, Wm. Holmes, Parley B. Miller 

 and wife, Peter Dodge and wife, Thomas Musto and wife.
