1850s-early 1900s

This antique handwritten church ledger was being auctioned on eBay in mid-2003.  It contains member lists, baptisms, confirmations, and communions dating back to the church's organization.  Realizing the importance of the information, I bid on it but unfortunately lost the auction.  Fortunately, the seller was willing to photocopy the pages with writing on them and I am able to present them to you.

The images are difficult to read in places, but please understand that, as I do not possess the original ledger, I cannot make a better scan. In order to preserve detail, the enlarged images are quite large (between 350-900+ kb).  There appear to be pages missing in places, but I cannot confirm that.  I scanned every page that was sent to me.
