a Free-will Baptist minister, was born at Byron, N. Y., in 1807. He was converted at the age of twenty-two, and united with the Church in Byron. In 1840-41 he was especially interested in bringing about a union between the Free Communion and Free-will Baptists. In 1848 he moved to the West, and preached in several churches — viz. Paw Paw, Waverly, Jackson, etc., Mich., until the close of his life. He was engaged in about twenty revivals, witnessed over a thousand conversions, and baptized several hundreds. He died in Waverly, Oct 22, — 1869. See Free-will Baptist Register, 1870, p. 80. (J. C. S.)
