Handbook of Historical Free Will Baptist Burial Places: Pioneer Ministers

This edition has 1820 burial locations from 40 states and 3 foreign countries of the pioneer preachers of a old church organization-Free Will Baptists. It represents all sections of this active denomination as it met the challenges of its day. Whether in New England, where it contributed to the colleges and universities of the time, or sent those to the legislature to maintain the wishes of the founding fathers. Or in the south and west as the movement spread into the mountains and into the plains. This movement's history can be found in the biographies and burial histories in this book in the life of each minister. I have found the history of each minister fascinating. You will also.This book does not represent just the present National Association which was organized in 1935, but the Randall Movement (Northern) before and after the merger with the Northern Baptists in 1911. It includes The southern movement founded by Paul Palmer in North Carolina in 1727 and others that are part of the Free Will Baptist movement, but never were a part of the national convention or who existed prior or separate to it. Such as the Stone, John-Thomas, John Wheeler Associations, North Carolina OFWB and more. It contains hundreds of photos. The sources used for accumulating these hundreds of men and women; were found in graveyard records, county histories, church records, genealogies, biographies, Google research, and valuable denominational resource materials such as: Cyclopedia of Free Baptists, pub. 1889 by Burgess and Ward. But it is the product of hundreds of hours and the help of others to put this book together.
