FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH

The only dates given are those of 1848.  The date of June 1st 1805 possibly is that of the writing of the Articles (7) of the Constitution.

As this book is dated "Property of the Pleasant Valley Society, Pompey, Mch 3 1812, the names of members prior to that date may have been copied from an earlier record, and the others signed the constitution as they became church members.  There is no list of women members, no baptisms or marriages in this book.  If there is another book of records, there is no knowledge of it.

This book appears to be records of the business meetings of the Church, such as committees, etc.

First Church Building erected in 1808.
Second Church Building erected in 1851.

This building is still used and is located at Oran on the Cherry Valley Turnpike (as of 1934).
