VESTRYMEN.
VESTRYMEN.
This list is made from careful examination of the records. Previous to Easter, 1699, no church officers except wardens were chosen. There is no record of vestrymen chosen at Easter, 1703 and 1704; only the wardens elected in those years being named in the records. This is also the case with the records from 1787 to 1796. The names indicated with a " W." are those of persons who have been wardens, the dates of their service in that capacity being given in the preceding list.
The records concerning the persons named, cited from the " Register of Burials," are indi- cated by an asterisk (*). As this register contains no entries for the years 1686-1714, 1728- 1738, 1776-1788, the dates of some who were members of King's Chapel at their death are not recorded. Abbreviations and titles are copied exactly from the records.
