St. John's Reformed Church

Many thanks to Herbert R. Groff, typing volunteer, who typed this section.

NOTE.

The preceeding pages are all that remain of the first volume of the record of the Upper Palatine Church. The book as it now stands, consists of 44 leaves; one leaf in this part of the book has been torn out. The record is bound in parchment, and fully two thirds of the letter part of the book are at present missing, the leaves having been torn out thus opening a gap in the binding, from which the original size of the book can be estimated as having contained about 120 leaves. It is reasonable to suppose that Dominie Dysslin continued to inscribe is this record, the baptisms adminstered by him up to the time of his death, which occurred in about the month of September in 1812. It is possible that the book may also have contained a Marriage Register.

In view of the fact of this hiatus of over eighteen years in the vital records of this church, particular attention should be given to the remaining pages that appear in this typewritten volume. We have copied a considerable portion of the Treasurer’s account book of St. John’s Church. In the lists of subscribers and pew holders, the names of the greater part of Dominie Dysslin’s Congregation can be found, as also numerous items of historical interest. To which reference has been made in the introduction. The Treasurer’s book is the same size as Dominie Dysslin’s record; it is bound in ½ calf with pasteboard sides, cost nine shillings and contains about 200 pages, some of which are blank. It was in use until the year 1873, but only parts of the book have been copied Some attempt has been made to arrange the items copied in chronological order, as the original record is very much confused. The Trustee’s Minutes have been abstracted and not completely copied. Each page as a unit, as it appears in the original is indicated by dotted lines, thus:

(NOTE: 1999 Typist: Have attempted to copy the record exactly as it was copied years ago. There are quite a few misspelled words, names etc, -just so you don't think all the errors are mine.)
