Summary: The first families from England had to have a meeting house and minister to be incorporated by Plymouth as a town. Tom discusses this church – its clergy, community, meeting houses, cemeteries – and its relations with the local Nauset Tribe.
The first 72 years to the death of Rev. Treat is the focus, with reference to the ongoing life of today’s congregational community.
Recent discoveries are featured, including:
• the finding of foundations for the very first meeting house;
• the realization that a small percent of the congregation actually was in church on a Sunday;
• how unfair it might be to know Rev. Treat only as the bombastic fire and brimstone preacher...
