Honorable John H. Finley, President of the University
Deae sir: I take pleasure in transmitting herewith, as a part
of the State Historian's annual report, and in recommending for
early publication, Ecclesiastical Records, State of New York,
Volume VII, Index.
Such an index has for years been demanded by students of the
early Dutch records of ISlew York. In response to that demand
authority was granted me by your predecessor, the late Honorable
Andrew S. Draper, to secure the preparation of an index, thus
making more readily available a large store of historic material
contained in the six volumes heretofore issued under the auspices
of the State Historian. The work was performed under legisla-
tive sanction by the late Keverend Edward T. Corwin D.D., the
original compiler of the printed records.
I desire here to acknowledge our indebtedness to A. J. F.
vanLaer, State Archivist, for some helpful hints regarding this
index, and for his additions to the list of ministers in Brazil.
Owing to your expressed desire to have an expert collation
made of the pagination of the index in manuscript, with the
printed books, the appearance of this work has been delayed
until the present time. It is believed, however, that its value to
scholars has been greatly enhanced by this collation and review.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
Yours very sincerely
James Austin Holden

PREFACE
The present volume is the outcome of efforts begun by the
Honorable Hugh Hastings while State Historian. The Ecclesi^
astical Records of the State of New York were originally com-
piled under the auspices of the State Historian by the Reverend
Edward T. Corwin D.D. Litt.D., who was well fitted for the task
by reason of his familiarity with the Dutch language, and by his
personal acquaintance with the ecclesiastical authorities in Hol-
land, where he lived for some time. The General Synol of the
Reformed Dutch church originally started this work, and through
its generosity much of this valuable material relating to the
ecclesiastical history of New York State, and including every
denomination from the earliest Dutch times, has been secured for
the students of religious history.^ The first and second volumes
of these records were published in 1901, the third and fourth in
1902 and the fifth and sixth in 1905. It was the original inten-
tion of both Mr Hastings and Doctor Corwin to complete this valu-
able and monumental work by the addition of a proper index.
In their present condition, except to the student who is possessed
of infinite patience and an abundance of time, a great deal of the
value of these really interesting and important documents is lost.
As has been stated, they are not merely a compilation of the
reports of the Reformed Dutch churches in America to the Classis
of Amsterdam, but through their collateral references, selected
from the contemporary written records either in manuscript or
printed form, they contain the history of nearly every religious
denomination then prominent in the New World, having more
especial relation to those to be found within the boundaries of
New York as a colony, and likewise as a state from 1621 to 1810.
Through the efforts of Mr Hastings, an item was placed in
the supply bill of 1907 calling for an appropriation of $1500 for
preparing a suitable index for the Ecclesiastical Records. Dur-
ing the compilation and preparation of these records, Doctor
Corwin acquired a great deal of index material and made ready
therefore to enter upon the final part of the work.

PREFACE
In the summer of 1907, Mr Hastings was succeeded by the
Honorable Victor H. Paltsits. The appropriation was allowed to
lapse, and nothing further was done in the matter until the acces-
sion to office of the present State Historian.
Soon after he took office, in May 1911, he began to receive
letters from prominent ecclesiastics and students of the early
colonial period asking that the work on the index of these Ecclesi-
astical Records might be completed. These letters urging publica-
tion have been continued up to the present, showing that interest
in the index has by no means died out. Taking the matter up,
the State Historian found that, regardless of the fact that the work
had been stopped officially. Doctor Corwin had continued his labors
on the index for his own use, and believed that it could be finished
within a year's time. Meanwhile the office of the State Historian
had by legislative action been incorporated into the body of the
Education Department as the Division of History. The State
Historian, as chief of that division, then procured the consent of
the late Commissioner of Education, the Honorable Andrew S.
Draper, to place in the supply bill for 1912 an item, which was
later approved by Governor John A. Dix, for the employment of
an expert to prepare an index to the Ecclesiastical Records at an
expense not exceeding $500, this being the amount which, in his
desire to have the undertaking properly completed, Doctor Corwin
agreed to accept, and he at once started on the work of making the
index.
The time, strength and ability which Doctor Corwin devoted to
this work, no less than the cash contribution in the difference
between the original and the later appropriation, merit the com-
mendation and praise of historical students and all others inter-
ested in preserving in permanent form the annals of our common-
wealth. It is much to be regretted that Doctor Corwin did not
live long enough to see the result of all his work in print.
The index was completed in June 1913, and is at last, after
unavoidable delays and a complete and expert collation as to its
pagination with the text as printed, submitted in this form to
the public, with the hope that students of the colonial period will
find it a key to a more complete knowledge than is now possessed
of the civil, educational and ecclesiastical affairs of those early
days. James Austin Holden

A BIOGEAPHICAL SKETCH BY HIS SON^ KEVEEEND CHAELES E.
COEWIN
The Reverend E. T. Corwin D.D. Litt.D., the discoverer and
editor of the Ecclesiastical Records of the State of New York, was
born in Xew York City on July 12, 1834. On his father's side he
was descended from the Puritans of ]^ew England, while
through his mother he was related to the Dutch founders of Xew
Netherland.
Doctor Corwin's youth was passed in the metropolis, whose his-
tory he knew so well and in whose affairs he was so much inter-
ested. He was graduated in 1853 in the first class sent out by the
College of the City of Xew York. In 1856 he was graduated
from the Seminary of the Reformed Church at ^STew Brunswick,
iSTew Jersey. After a year spent in special linguistic studies, he
was ordained and was for six years, 1857-63, the pastor of the
Reformed Church of Paramus, ^ew Jersey. His chief pastorate,
of twenty-five years, was spent at Millstone, New Jersey. In
1888 he became the rector of Hertzog Hall of the Reformed
Church Seminary at N'ew Brunswick, I^ew Jersey. Seven years
later he accepted a call from the Reformed Church of Greenport,
Xew York. He served in this, his last pastorate, from 1895 to
1897. In the latter year he was sent by the General Synod of
the Reformed church to Holland on a mission of historical ex-
ploration. The results of his discoveries in the archives of the
Classis of Amsterdam and elsewhere are embodied in the Ecclesi-
astical Records of the State of New York. After his return to
America he devoted himself entirely to literary work. He resided,
first at ISTew Brunswick, and, after the death of his wife, in 1905,
with his son at Xorth Branch, New Jersey. He died there, very
suddenly, on June 22, 1914.
Doctor Corwin was bom with a genius for historical research.
As a boy it was his delight, when visiting in the country, to copy
[9]
10 THE UNIVERvSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
the inscription on ancestral tombstones. His genealogical studies
bore fruit in the Corwin Genealogy, 1872, one of the first books
of its class. This work was constructed on a plan original with
the author, but since widely copied. In each of his pastorates he
became immediately interested in local church and tOAvn history.
The results of these studies were preserved in published discourses,
all of which at once became standards for their class.
For ten years, during his pastorate at Millstone, he received
into his home and educated for college, Japanese students. These
young men were sent by their government to obtain a western
education. Several of them have risen to positions of power and
honor in the Sunrise Kingdom.
From the beginning of his ministry he took an interest in the
history and larger relations of his own denomination. The Manual
of the Reformed Church in America was the result. The first
edition of this work, published in 1858, was a small book of one
hundred sixty-six pages. A second edition, much larger, ap-
peared in 1869. An edition still further enlarged was issued in
1879. The last edition, of ten hundred eighty-two pages, was
published in 1902. This work is unique among church manuals.
There is no other denomination in the country which has so much
information in regard to its ministry and churches in so acces-
sible a form. A Digest of Synodical Legislation of the Reformed
Church in America, brought out in 1906, was the by-product of
many years of toil.
It was, however, in the discovery and editing of the Amsterdam
Correspondence, incorporated in the Ecclesiastical Records of the
State of New York, that Doctor Corwin's historical instincts were
most fully revealed. In Holland his ability to find what existed,
and to find out about what had been lost, amounted to a peculiar
genius. As the hart pants for the water brooks; so he searched
for documents of the Dutch colonial period until he found them.
The present index, completed by Doctor Corwin, but not issued
before his death, brought to conclusion these valuable historical
labors.
Besides these major works, he was the author of innumerable
essays and magazine articles on historical and biblical subjects,
and coeditor in the preparation of several important volumes. He
left, unfinished, an elaborate History of the Collegiate Church of
ECCLESIASTICAL, RECOEDS 11
New York City upon which he had been engaged for several years.
During the last few months of his life, he had in preparation for
the American Society of Church History a list, with sketches, of
all the ministers of all denominations who served in the Middle
States before 1800. He was at work upon this list on the day he
died.
Doctor Corwin's genius was a genius for hard work. His indus-
try was tireless and he had an infinite capacity for taking pains.
]N'ot by sudden inspiration but by patient toil did he accomplish so
much. To those who knew him personally, the historical scholar
was merged in the conscientious, kindly man. He was absolutely
upright in his dealings with his fellows, and justice was con-
tinually passing into mercy. Each of his pastorates especially
that at Millstone, was solidly successful. He was greatly loved
by multitudes whom he served in the ministerial office. Although
more than twenty-five years had passed since he left Millstone, a
delegation of about fifty of his old parishioners made the journey
to North Branch to attend his funeral.
His body was laid to rest beside that of his beloved wife in the
cemetery at Paramus, New Jersey. This cemetery he himself
laid out, near the old stone church of his first pastorate.
INTRODUCTION
An index to the Ecclesiastical Records of the State of New
York has been a desideratum ever since the sixth volume of the
work was issued, in 1905. These records bring together a larger
number of the ecclesiastical documents of the colonial period
relating to ISTew York and New Jersey than any other single col-
lection. The original design of the enterprise was to gather the
documents of the lieformed Dutch church as the oldest denomina-
tion in the State. But as the work progressed it seemed desirable
to bring in collateral documents of other religious bodies, because
the documents of one denomination throw light on those of other
bodies of the same period, the external circumstances being iden-
tical. The different bodies were also often so intermingled in
their relations or contentions that the history of one could not be
well understood without dealing with the history of the others.
Until nearly the close of the seventeenth century, however, there
were few other religious bodies to deal with than the Reformed
Dutch church. There were, indeed, scattered Congregational and
Presbyterian churches on Long Island, in Westchester county and
in ISTew Jersey, but until after 1700 these were few in number,
separate and independent. Nevertheless, not infrequent refer-
ences to them will be found in these Records. There were also
before 1700 a few Lutheran churches on this territory, but the
principal early development of this body was in Pennsylvania.
There were also Friends or Quakers and several other varieties of
Christians, as well as a few Jews, all of whom will be more or
less frequently alluded to. The early French Catholic mission-
aries from Canada in central New York and the French Hugue-
nots in several different localities are not forgotten.
The Anglican church does not come into distinctive view,
except a few references to chaplains of British troops, until the
founding of Trinity Church in New York City in 1697. Before
this date there were no Episcopal churches in New York or New
Jersey. The ministry bill of 1693 was for the support of a
" good sufficient Protestant minister," but it was limited in its
[13]
14 THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
application to six localities, and these were in only four counties
out of the ten which then existed in New York. While English
governors claimed that this bill established the Anglican church,
its language was so indefinite that its meaning and application
were subjects of dispute and litigation down to the Revolution.
With the organization in London, in 1701, of the Society for the
Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, Anglican ministers
begon to be sent over and Anglican churches established. Before
the American Revolution this society sent fifty-nine ministers to
New York and forty-four to New Jersey, one hundred three
in all, and founded from thirty to forty churches on this territory.
Some of these ministers were missionaries to the Indians. Allu-
sions will be found in these Records to most if not all of these.
About twenty German Reformed churches were also founded
on this territory before 1776. The Reformed Dutch church, how-
ever, was the original and principal factor. It founded more than
a hundred churches, which were served by more than a hundred
ministers during the colonial period. The allusions to these men
and organizations are abundant.
The connection of education and religion will also be found fre-
quently alluded to in these volumes, especially facts relating to the
origin of Kings (Columbia) College in New York, and to Queens
(Rutgers) College in New Jersey. There are also not a few allu-
sions to Princeton College. Items of interest relating to the
churches in the Revolutionary struggle are referred to, and espe-
cially the subsequent steps of reorganization of the denominations
under the new American conditions. The index to these Records,
herewith given to the public, will greatly facilitate investigations
relating to the churches and schools of colonial times. These vol-
umes, even before they had an index, were the source of new works
upon American ecclesiastical history, with several magazine
articles on education.
ERRATA ET CORRIGENDA
This apparently extensive list of errata may need a word of
explanation. Some of these corrections are of errors of classical
clerks in Holland; some, of governors or other officials who, in
making their reports, misapprehended the facts; some are errors
of old translations which were incorporated in this work; some
are editorial, but most are typographical. It is remarkable, how-
ever, that in a work of such magnitude, embracing six volumes
and 4413 pages, and dealing with many strange names, the errata
average only one error to twenty-seven pages.

b At first, the West India Company assumed the maintenance of all ministers
sent out under their auspices, but as their fortunes waned, the company urged
the churches to assist in supporting their ministers, and thus began the develop-
ment of the voluntary system. The charter referring to support of ministers by
Patroons on their manors, found only one field for its application, that of Albany.
During the term of the second minister in that place, the Patroon withdrew his
support altogether, and the congregation was required to raise the salary, (1658)
424 ; with the English conquest, of course, all help from the West India Company
ceased. The fluctuating condition of ministerial salaries for the next generation
Is indicated by the references above given.

6 According to the ministry act of 1693, the town vestries had the sole au-
thority to choose ministers for the parishes mentioned in that bill. Owing to
the character of the population, these vestrymen were mostly dissenters, and
chose ministers of their own views; also often refused to pay Anglican rectors.
Hence frequent litigation. By a clause in the charter of Trinity Church, after
the call of Vesey by the town vestry, the choice of ministers for this church was
controlled by an ecclesiastical vestry, although the town vestry held the purse.
