Danbury, Ct., April 16, 1795 ; he early in life was
converted and baptized into the Baptist church in
Danbury and soon imbibed an earnest desire to
engage in the work of the ministry, and it was soon
evident that the Lord had endowed him with a
special gift for the work. After serving for a time
in his native town he settled in New York city as
pastor of the Union Baptist church, afterward the
Stanton street Baptist church. He m. March 30,
1816, Nancy Ford, of New Jersey ; they had five
children ; the eldest three died. Susan and Andrew
lived, married and had families. The Benedict
Genealogy , pag© 395, contains an interesting bio-
graphical sketch of him. He was greatly endeared
to the compiler of this work, as his pastor, who
baptized and married him, as noted elsewhere. He
was remarkable for his earnest piety, gentleness of
manner and loyalty to the claims of God as revealed
' in the Bible. He died at the meridian of his work,
greatly beloved, Oct. 28, 1848, and was buried in
Greenwood cemetery.
