III .- THE HISTORY OF THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES.
The Congregational Society .- Freedom from division .- The pastors .- The deacons .- Missionary spirit .- The present church building .- The revival of 1850 .- Changes in the manner of worship .- Organizations .- Statistics.
St. Joseph's Parish .- Difficulties of the Catholic pioneers .- Holding of services in Hatfield .- The first altar .- Building the church .- The pastors.
The Congregational Society .- Much of the early history of the Congregational Church has already been given in con- nection with the growth of the town. Hatfield has had only one Protestant church and that has fortunately been free from strife that led to divisions. The spread of Unitarianism in the early part of the nineteenth century caused a few to "sign off" from support of the church, but no attempt was made to form another society and many whose views were Unitarian continued to worship under Dr. Lyman and his successors. The church has had as attendants many who were allied with other denominations and not a few of them have united with it. In 1844-1846 meetings were held by some Methodists in the town hall, but no society was formed.
The first records of the church that have been preserved date back only to 1772-the church book of Dr. Lyman. No book of parish records separate from those of the church was kept, at least none has been preserved, till 1876, the time when the pastorate of Rev. Robert M. Woods began. The first parish was organized in 1830 and thereafter the church received no aid from the town. The ministers of the church have been as follows :-
Rev. Hope Atherton, ordained 1670; died June 8, 1677.
Rev. Nathaniel Chauncey, installed 1683; died Nov. 4, 1685.
Rev. William Williams, ordained 1686; died Aug. 31, 1741.
