HE East Genesee Annual Conference
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
was in existence for about a quarter
of a century. During that time
more than four hundred ministers
were members of it, and labored as
Methodist ministers do. Then the
Conference was blotted out, and left
no successor. Its records it is the
duty of no one to perpetuate. The records of an ex-
isting Conference are too often neglected, but about
one which has ceased to be there is something pecu-
liarly pathetic.
For some years the East Genesee Conference has
strongly appealed to me, although I never had the
remotest connection with it, and it passed out of
being before I had ever learned its name. Seven
years ago I began a careful compilation of its mat-
ter for publication, and in a year or two had most
of the contemplated work done, but the pressure
of many duties retarded the work, and delayed its
completion until now.
In publishing so much of detail it is useless to
expect there are no errors, but I trust they are
neither many nor great.
The Rev. Freeborn G. Hibbard, D. D., wrote a
History of East Genesee Conference, which was
pubHshed by the Methodist Book Concern in 1887,
but is now out of print. It consists largely of
reminiscences contributed by pastors, and reveals
very closely the spirit of the workers of that day.

3lta O^ngm
THE East Genesee Conference was created in
May, 1848, by action of the General Confer-
ence then being held in Pittsburg, Pa. It was
formed entirely from territory which had previously
belonged to the Genesee Conference.
Genesee Conference at its greatest extent, after
1812, was a vast triangle, including such widely
separated places as Detroit, Wilkes-Barre and Que-
bec. In 1824, all Canada and beyond was taken from
it to form the Canada Conference, but the Genesee,
developing rapidly, was still too large. In 1829 all
its territory east of Cayuga Lake was cut off, to
form the Oneida Conference, but growth still con-
tinued and in a few years the territory yet remain-
ing began to be Considered too large for one Con-
ference. At its annual session in 1846, a resolution
was presented favoring another division, but it was
laid on the table for a year, that the ensuing General
Conference might be nearer at hand. In 1847 the
subject was again taken up, and thoroughly dis-
cussed. It was generally agreed that the Conference
was too large. Only three Annual Conferences in
Methodism were larger, and of these the New York
and the Ohio were divided at the General Confer-
ence of 1848, and the Baltimore four years later.
Accordingly resolutions were passed recommend-
ing the General Conference to divide the Conference
10 ITS ORIGIN
substantially on the line of the Genesee river, and
requesting that the western part be called Genesee
and the eastern part East Genesee. Other resolu-
tions were passed providing, in case of the division,
for an equal division of the Conference funds, an
equal division as near as might be of the superan-
nuated preachers living outside Conference bounds,
an equal representation on the Board of Trustees of
Genesee Wesleyan Seminary, and fixing the next
meeting of the Genesee Conference at Buffalo and
the first meeting of the East Genesee Conference at
Rochester.
The memorials from Genesee Conference were
presented to the General Conference, and were re-
ferred in due course to the Committee on Boun-
daries, which gave them favorable consideration.
That Committee reported it May 26, its report was
adopted, and so East Genesee Conference came into
being.
3ltB Slfrntnry
THE territory of the East Genesee Conference
was thus described by the General Confer-
ence which created it: "East Genesee Conference
shall contain all that part of the state of New York
west of the Black River and Oneida Conferences, and
east of the Genesee river, including the whole of the
city of Rochester, together with so much of the state
of Pennsylvania as is embraced in the Seneca Lake
and Wellsborough districts, and Ulysses circuit."
This is not an altogether satisfactory delineation
of territory, and it is made not much more definite
by the description given of the boundaries of the
other two Conferences named. But it was bounded
on the north by Lake Ontario, on the east by the
Black River and the Oneida Conferences, on the
south by the Baltimore Conference, and on the west
by the Genesee Conference. The east line was prac-
tically the east line of Wayne county, Cayuga lake,
and the Susquehanna river. Its south line was not
far from the southern boundaries of Bradford and
Tioga counties in Pennsylvania. Its west line was
the Genesee river, but including all of Rochester.
So the East Genesee Conference was about 125
miles long, had an average width of about 75 miles,
and contained something more than 9,000 square
miles. It was an attractive territory, comprising the
n ITS TERRITORY
greater part of the charming lake region of central
New York, and the beautiful valleys of the Che-
mung, the Cohocton, and the Genesee. At the north
was the level and fertile land bordering Lake On-
tario, and at the south were the mountains and for-
ests of Pennsylvania.
At the time East Genesee Conference begins its
career pioneering had already ceased, and the first
railways were running. The forests were largely
cleared away, and the country districts were peopled
about as now. The villages, however, were much
smaller, and the cities had hardly begun their
growth.

Sta O^romtlj
A study of its statistics, as given elsewhere in this
volume, will show that the East Genesee Conference
had a steady growth, almost without interruption.
Between its first report, in 1848, and its last, in 1871,
the members of Conference increased from 115 to
200; its church members from 15423 to 23262; its
number of Sunday Schools from 242 to 358 ; and its
number of Sunday School scholars from 10581 to
22463.
How encouraging this growth was is best appre-
ciated by a comparison with its neighbor on the west,
the Genesee Conference, from which it was separated
at its organization. Neither Conference, during the
period under consideration, underwent any change
of boundaries.
During this period then — 1848 to 1871 — the East
Genesee Conference increased in church members
50.8 per cent., and in Sunday School scholars 112.3
per cent. During the same period the Genesee Con-
ference increased its number of Sunday School
scholars only 67.7 per cent., and its number of church
members actually decreased 10.3 per cent. ! Ap-
parently East Genesee had lived in comparative
peace and quietude, little disturbed by Nazaritism
and other troubles which had made life in old Gen-
esee so strenuous.
ilta }paat0ral Support
THE first report — that of 1848 — which was
made by East Genesee Conference on pas-
toral support is an interesting study. The several
amounts received for "Quarterly Claim," for "Table
Expenses," for "House Rent," and for "Traveling
Expenses" are reported separately, and then the
total claim, the total amount received, and the defi-
ciency, if any, are also given.
The "Quarterly Claim" is usually the largest
amount. The greatest amount allowed any one
is $344, and the lowest $100. For "Table Expenses"
the highest allowed any pastor is $308.50, although
one presiding elder, presumably with a great appe-
tite, is allowed $320. The lowest allowed any is
$34, which would not seem to recommend his house
as a boarding place. The greatest amount allowed
for "House Rent" is $186, in the city of Rochester,
and the lowest is $10, except that some have no
allowance for this purpose. For "Traveling Ex-
penses" the highest allowance is $50, and the lowest
$1, although many have nothing. Evidently some
of these preachers must have walked in, carrying
their possessions in a red bandana.
Of the total amounts paid that year the five pre-
siding elders received severally as follows : $575,
$530, $479, $443, and $277.74. Of the total amounts
paid pastors, only eight charges reached $500 or
18 ITS PASTORAL SUPPORT
more, as follows. West Rochester, $703.50; East
Rochester, $700 ; Elmira, $600 ; Canoga, $585 ; Ge-
neva, $525; Palmyra, $511; Penfield, $500; Water-
loo, $500. Of this number the latter was the only
one with a parsonage. The lowest paid any mem-
ber of the Conference was $133, although one sup-
ply received only $75,
At this time there were only 34 parsonages in
the entire Conference, distributed among the dis-
tricts as follows : Ontario, 1 1 ; Seneca Lake, 8 ;
Rochester, 7 ; Wellsborough, 5 ; Dansville, 3. But
this condition improved rapidly, and when the last
report was made — that of 1871 — the Conference
had 131 parsonages, reported from the several dis-
tricts as follows: Geneva, 26; Elmira, 24; Penn
Yan, 24 ; Hornellsville, 22 ; Troy, 19 ; Rochester, 16.
So at the end there were only about fifty pastoral
charges without parsonages.
In the report of pastoral support in 1871 it is
arranged very differently. There is given the
amount of salary allowed, the amount of salary
paid, the amount paid for house rent in cases where
there is no parsonage, and the amount given in dona-
tions. This is the time when the donation idea was
in its glory, and nearly every pastor reported some-
thing in that column. Some of the amounts, of
course, were not large, but thirty charges each made
donations of $200 or more, and of this number nine
donated $300 or more, the largest donations being
Lyons $500, and Canandaigua $600.
ITS PASTORAL SUPPORT 19
In total amount of salary paid, exclusive of house
rent or parsonage, the Conference makes a fine
showing. 38 charges paid $1,000 or more, only 51
paid less than $700, and only 16 less than $500.
The significance of this is most clearly shown by
the deadly parallel. Compare the amounts paid in
certain districts in the East Genesee Conference in
1871 with the amounts paid by the same districts
in the Genesee and Central New York Conferfences
as given in their latest reports, 1907. In the table
below the first column shows the percentage of
charges paying $1,000 or more, the second column
the percentage paying less than $700, and the third
column the percentage paying less than $500. In
every instance it is highly complimentary to the
East Genesee Conference, but it can hardly be pleas-
ant reading for the churches of to-day.

The first report of the East Genesee Conference
shows collections for three benevolences only : Mis-
sions $2704.55, Bibles $1408.56, and Sunday School
Books $972.47. This may seem modest, but it was
a time when dollars were not plentiful.
The amounts contributed continued to increase,
and the number of causes became greater as the
benevolent societies organized by the denomination
multiplied. That given for the American Bible
Society is especially noticeable. It increases until
it reaches its maximum of $2792 in 1870, and at the
last report, the next year, it was $2527. Either of
these sums is considerably more than twice as much
as both the great Genesee and East Genesee Confer-
ences combined contributed in 1907.
The amount contributed for Missions reaches its
maximum in the centennial year of 1866 — $12599,
although it is not much below it in 1871 — $12115.
This latter is $.52 per member. It also contributed
$1604 for the Church Extension Society that year.
So for the two together the average contribution was
$.59 per member. In 1907 for the Board of Foreign
Missions and for the Board of Home Missions and
Church Extension combined, the Genesee Confer-
ence contributed an average of $1.02 per member,
and the Central New York Conference $1.16.
ITS BENEVOLENCES Z5
The 1871 report shows the following contribu-
tions : Missions, from churches, $9308.80 ; Missions,
from Sunday Schools, $2806.24; Church Extension,
$1604.38; Tract Society, $492.52; Bible Society,
$2527.81; Sunday School Union, $566.34; Freed-
men's Aid Society, $249.41.
Among miscellaneous benevolences it ought also
to be stated that at the session of the East Genesee
Conference held at Elmira in 1870 subscriptions for
the new Syracuse University were taken, amounting
to $23500, of which sum $13425 was subscribed by
the ministers themselves.

GENESEE WESLEYAN SEMINARY.
When the East Genesee Conference was organ-'
ized there was already a flourishing Conference
school within its territory, with about five hundred
students — the Genesee Wesleyan Seminary at Lima,
N. Y. — into the support and control of which it at
once entered.
The school had previously been started by the
Genesee Conference, and its doors opened for stu-
dents on May 1, 1832. It was from the first a sem-
inary of high grade, and this at a time when the
modern high-school was almost unknown. Pro-
phetic insight was also shown in making it a co-edu-
cational institution, at a time when the wisdom of
that idea had not yet been established by experience.
The East Genesee Conference, as soon after its
organization as legislative action could be secured,
began to elect half of the trustees of the Seminary,
and in every way shoulder responsibility. Three
Principals of the Seminary were members of the
East Genesee, and while the Conference lived it fur-
nished the Seminary Treasurer most of the time.
The Principals of the Seminary from the begin-
ning to the present time have been as follows : Sam-
uel Luckey 1832-33-34-35 ; Lockwood Hoyt, Acting,
1836; Schuyler Seager 1837-38-39-40-41-42-43-44;

GENESEE COLLEGE.
There had previously been talk of securing a col-
lege charter for the institution at Lima, and after the
East Genesee Conference was organized a new im-
petus was given to the movement. So in 1849 a
charter was obtained for "Genesee College," and the
agents soon had pledges amounting to $100,000
secured. The college opened in September, 1850,
with a faculty of five, James L. Alverson apparently
being acting President. The first regular President
was not elected until the following year.
The Genesee College continued as a separate insti-
tution for a score of years, doing honorable and val-
uable work, but it never attained much magnitude.
Later it was thought best to found a larger institu-
tion at Syracuse, and merge the college into it. The
ITS SCHOOLS m
faculty and many of the students went to Syracuse
at the opening of the university, but the Genesee
Wesleyan Seminary at Lima fell heir to the college
buildings, to its entire equipment, and to its endow-
ment of over $50,000.
The Presidents of Genesee College were as fol-
lows: Benjamin F. Tefft 1851-52-53; Joseph Cum-
mings 1854-55-56-57 ; John M. Reid 1858-59-60-61-
62-63 ; James L. Alverson, Acting, 1864 ; John W.
Lindsay 1865-66-67; Daniel Steele 1868-69-70.
SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY
The East Genesee Conference entered heartily into
the movement to establish a university at Syracuse,
and at its session held in Elmira in 1870 made sub-
scriptions for its endowment amounting to $23,500,
over half of which was subscribed by members of
the Conference. A resolution was passed at the same
session to undertake to raise $60,000 for that pur-
pose, and shortly afterward Andrew C. Lindsay, of
Rtishville, N. Y.,.gave $25,000 of the amount.
The Syracuse University was opened Aug. 31,
1871, and the wildest dreams of its founders have
been more than realized in its magnificent success.
Its Chancellors from the beginning have been as fol-
lows : Daniel Steele, Acting, 1871 ; John R. French,
Acting, 1872 ; Alexander Winchell 1873 ; Erastus O.
Haven 1874-75-76-77-78-79-80; Charles N. Sims
1881-82-83-84-85-86-87-88-89-90-91-92; John R.

98-99-1900-01-02-03-04-05-06-07.
so ITS SCHOOLS
OTHER SCHOOLS.
Besides the schools already mentioned the East
Genesee Conference gave its countenance and sup-
port to at least five other schools. It elected trustees
and visitors to the Rogersville Union Seminary from
1855 to 1858 inclusive; it elected visitors to the
Mansfield Seminary from 1855 to its transfer to the
State of Pennsylvania for a Normal School Dec. 11,
1862 ; it elected trustees and visitors for the Wal-
worth Academy from 1855 to 1868 inclusive; it
elected trustees and visitors for Dansville Academy
from 1858 to 1868 inclusive ; and it elected trustees
and visitors for the East Genesee Conference Sem-
inary, at Ovio, N. Y., from 1864 until the Confer-
ence was dismembered.
During this time the following appointments to
the Principalship of these schools was made from
among the members of the East Genesee Conference :
Rogersville Union Seminary, William S. Hall
1855; Isaiah McMahon 1856; Philip Crisfield 1864.
Dansville Academy, Schuyler Seager 1858-59-60;
John J. Brown 1861-62-63.
Mansfield Seminary, James Landreth 1859.
East Genesee Conference Seminary, John Easter
1867-68-69.
In addition to these, several members of the Con-
ference were appointed from time to time to other
institutions of learning, not in any way under Con-
ference control.
3lta ilttauranr?
As early as 1859 the East Genesee Conference
undertook to establish an association to in-
sure church and parsonage property. A committee
framed a constitution, which the Conference
adopted. The title of the organization was "The
East Genesee Conference Mutual Aid Association."
A Board of Managers, consisting of six ministers
and six laymen, was elected. Mr. J. W. Stebbins,
of Rochester, was made President ; Mr. A. D. Piatt,
of Geneva, Secretary ; and the Rev. J. T; Arnold, of
Clyde, Treasurer. It was planned to secure a char-
ter from the Legislature if there should prove to be
sufficient co-operation to warrant it. The next year
the Conference by resolution urged upon the pas-
tors to present the matter to their church trustees.
The subject is not afterward mentioned, so evi-
dently it was not found practicable to go on with
the project.
But a different fate awaited an organization to
insure the ministers themselves. At the annual ses-
sion held in Lima in 1860, "The Mutual Aid Society
of the East Genesee Conference" was organized,
and it was incorporated by special act of the Legis-
lature of the State of New York, passed April 12,
1862. The Society was of the fraternal order, yet
did not depend entirely on assessments made on
the death of members, but began at once to lay up
32 ITS INSURANCE
a permanent fund, the income from which was to
be used to meet current expenses and claims. It
was arranged so that expenses should be very small,
for the offices were to work gratuitously, and there
were to be no commissions paid. After the East
Genesee Conference was divided between the Gen-
esee and the Central New York Conferences in 1872,
it was arranged so that members of either of these
two Conferences, not more than forty years of age,
could join the Society. Its constitution has been
changed somewhat from time to time, as changed
conditions and experience have indicated. The
growth of the Society, of necessity, has been modest.
It took about a quarter of a century to reach the
hundred mark, and it is now one hundred and fifty.
It pays $1,200 on the death of a member, and makes
a yearly dividend to the superannuates in its mem-
bership. It has paid seventy beneficiary claims dur-
ing its history. The permanent fund has now
reached the magnificent sum of $13,348, and is
steadily piling up. The Mutual Aid Society is the
only organization in existence which perpetuates
the name of the East Genesee Conference.
Its Treasurers have been as follows :■ D. W.
C. Huntington, 1860-61-62-63-64-65-66-67-68-69-70-
71; Porter McKinstry, 1872-73-74-75-76-77-78-79-

ilta OIi|urrlj f appr
During the entire life of the East Genesee Con-
ference it was closely related to the Northern Christ-
ian Advocate, and for half of that time furnished the
editor from its membership.
The need of a local church paper for Central and
Western New York had been recognized for some
years, and the Western Banner, the Auburn Banner,
and also the Conference and Family Recorder had
been started, but all had been soon discontinued.
On March 12, 1841, the Rev. John E. Robie, of the
Oneida Conference, a practical printer, began the
publication of an independent paper at Auburn,
which he called the Northern Advocate. He ar-
ranged with the Rev. Freeborn C. Hibbard, of the
Genesee Conference, to act as editor while serving
as pastor at Penn Yan. After a year and a half Dr.
Hibbard resigned, on account of the pressure of
other duties, and the Rev. William Hosmer, also of
the Genesee Conference, was secured as editor. The
paper made encouraging progress, and in 1844 the
proprietor sold out to the Methodist Book Concern,
and it became an official paper of the church, under
the name now of the Northern Christian Advocate.
It was removed to Syracuse in 1872, but it has re-
tained the name until the present day. Its owner-
ship was in the Methodist Book Concern and its

editors elected by the General Conference until 1900,
since which time it has again been independent.
The year the East Genesee Conference was or-
ganized the Rev. William Hosmer, then in its mem-
bership, was elected editor, and served for two quad-
renniums. He was followed by Dr. Hibbard, also
6f the East Genesee Conference. The influence
which the paper exerted throughout the territory no
man can estimate, and probably no Conference prof-
ited by it more than did the East Genesee.
Its editors have been as follows: Freeborn G.
Hibbard, Genesee Conference, 1841-42; William
Hosmer, Genesee Conference, 1843 ; Nelson Rounds,
Oneida Conference, 1844-45-46-47; William Hos-

Dr. Sawyer is now pastor at Slingerlands, N. Y.,
in the Troy Conference, Mr, Titus is resident in
Syracuse, N. Y., and Dr. Pearce is still editor, send-
ing out a paper replete with local news and devoted
to all the interests of the church.
3lts NotabbB
The only person living who was a member of the
East Genesee Conference at its organization in 1848
is John Knapp, who is an honored superannuate of
the Genesee Conference, and is residing at Pratts-
burg, N. Y. and is in his ninety-second year.
The oldest person who died while a member of the
East Genesee Conference was Cyrus Story, who
reached the age of ninety-one years, one month and
eleven days.
Among those who ever belonged to the East
Genesee Conference the one to reach the greatest
age, as far as known, was James Hemingway, who
died when ninety-three years, two months and ten

CONFERENCE boundaries in central and
western New York had come to be in a very
unsettled condition. The General Conference of
1868 made extensive readjustments, the Northern
New York appearing as the successor of the Black
River, and the Central New York as the successor
of the Oneida, both with great changes in bound-
aries, involving also the Wyoming. No little dis-
satisfaction ensued, particularly in the Northern
New York.
The Conferences undertook to right matters at
the General Conference of 1872 at Brooklyn. First
a resolution passed giving back to the Northern
New York all the territory formerly belonging to
the Black River, but this left the Central New
York seriously crippled, as part of its Oneida terri-
tory had been given to the Wyoming four years be-
fore. So the situation was now acute. The follow-
ing commission was appointed, with Bishop An-
drews as chairman, "to consider the subject of Con-
ference boundaries in central New York:" Genesee,
R. L. Waite, E. E. Chambers ; East Genesee, Robert
Hogoboom, Thomas Tousey; Central New York,
A. J. Phelps, B. I. Ives ; Northern New York, I. S.
Bingham, L. L. Palmer; Wyoming, Reuben Nel-
son, W. G. Queal.
The report of this commission, which was adopt-
ed in spite of strong opposition by East Geneseeans,
216 ITS END
re-arranged the territory of the five Conferences in-
to four Conferences, giving to the Genesee the new
name of Western New York, and obliterating the
East Genesee entirely, its territory being divided be-
tween the Central New York and the Western New
York. K. P. Jervis got a resolution through pro-
viding that the action should not become operative
for the destruction of the East Genesee Conference
until the First of September.
As East Genesee had never desired nor expected
such an end the grief and consternation can be
imagined. Over seventy of its members signed a
call for a convention, which met at Mt. Morris Aug.
13, 1872, Bishop Simpson being present by request,
and presiding. The roll call showed one hundred
four members, seven probationers, and seven lay
delegates present. The convention was nearly help-
less, but it passed a series of resolutions, and memo-
rialized the next General Conference to restore the
East Genesee with its original boundaries, and ap-
pointed a commission to take charge of the matter:
D. D. Buck, D. W. C. Huntington, O. L. Gibson,
John Dennis, William Bradley and A. F. Morey.
On March 21, 1876 these commissioners selected
two of their number — one from the Western New
York and one from the Central New York, to per-
sonally attend the General Conference in the inter-
ests of the memorial. These two were John Dennis
and D. D. Buck.

But, of course, memorials and protests could not
affect the action of the General Conference which
had already adjourned, and so on September 1,
1872, the East Genesee Conference ceased to be,
and left no successor.
The General Conference of 1876 met in Balti-
more, and the struggle was soon renewed. The out-
come was that on May 31 a report of the Committee
on Boundaries was adopted reading as follows:
"East Genesee Conference shall be bounded on the
west by the Genesee river, including the city of
Rochester, in the state of New York; on the north
by Lake Ontario; on the east by a line beginning
at Sodus Bay and running south on the east line of
the towns of Sodus and Lyons, in Wayne county,
and the east line of Ontario county to Seneca Lake,
thence southward up said lake to Watkins, thence
south to the New York state line, leaving the
charges of Watkins, Havana, Millport and Horse-
heads in Central New York Conference. It shall
also include the territory in the state of Pennsyl-
vania known as the Troy District."
So the East Genesee Conference was again in ex-
istence, but not with as much territory as before.
A large slice had been taken from the east side, and
nobody was satisfied. The first session of the East
Genesee Conference after this reconstruction was
held in the Asbury Church, Rochester, on Oct. 4,
1876. The Western New York Conference, its
friendly relative, met in LeRoy the same day, and
218 ITS END
appointed G. W. Paddock, K. D. Nettleton, A. F.
Morey, R. C. Brownlee and Sandford Hunt a com-
mission to take the boundary question into consider-
ation. Tlie East Genesee appointed as a commis-
sion for the same purpose K. P. Jervis, F. G. Hib-
bard, WilHam Bradley, George VanAlstyne and
Ransley Harrington.
These ten commissioners met in Rochester Oct.
5, elected F. G. Hibbard as chairman and Sandford
Hunt as secretary, and unanimously adopted the
following: "Resolved, that the division boundary
between the East Genesee and Western New York
Conferences be removed and made to coincide with
the eastern boundary of the East Genesee Confer-
ence, and that the territory thus united shall be
called the Genesee Conference."
Both Conferences approved the action of the Com-
missioners, and the East Genesee telegraphed the
Western New York an invitation to meet with them
in Rochester. The invitation was promptly accept-
ed, and the Western New Yorkers arrived Friday
afternoon, Oct. 6, and were joyfully welcomed. A
joint session was held at four o'clock, formal action
uniting the two Conferences under the name of Gen-
esee was taken, the two presiding Bishops, Simpson
and Ames concurred, and the grand old East Gene-
see again ceased to exist — this time not in sorrow,
but with rejoicing.
