Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes, Historical and Biographical, Concerning Elizabethtown, Its Eminent Men, Churches, and Ministers The history of the following Notes is very easily told. On my settlement in this town in July, 1833, I felt no little desire to make myself acquainted with the past history of the venerable Church which in the providence of God was committed to my care. I sought for its Records, but soon found that there were none reaching farther back than the ministry of Dr. Kollock. All beyond were lost amid the confusion of the war of the Revolution, or during the partial insanity of Mr. Austin. I next examined the Records of the Trustees, which, although extending back upwards of one hundred years, yet contain but little beyond the mere details of business. From these details, however, I have derived much information, and several interesting facts. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
