The first record book contains baptism and death dates as well as the Declaration of Faith, Constitution, a history of the church, and the names of members contributing to the building of the church. the second record book includes minutes of business meetings and notes regarding the Sunday services. The financial records pertain to the renovation of the church in 1904 and list names of members who subscribed to pay off the debts. Finally, photocopies of several miscellaneous items are included.

This register was prepared by Susan Hughes in October 1997. No restrictions apply to the use of this collection.
