Six Principle Baptist Church Fulton County

One of the first Christian de- nominations to establish itself within the limits of what is now Fulton county was a sect known as the Old or Six Principle Bap- tist Church. These Christians ciaimed as necessary for salvation a sincere belief in and a strict observance of the six principles of the doctrine of Christ as set down in the Epistle of the He- brews, chapter six, verses one and two: Repentance, faith, baptism, laying on of hands, resurrection of the dead and eternai judgment. It appears that ali Baptists had admitted five of the above principles as necessary for church membership but as to the "laying on of hands," there was a differ- ence of opinion. The Particular of Calvinistic Baptists said it was not necessary while the General of Arminian Baptists insisted that it was. This disagreement had come up frequentiy in the early Baptist churches of England. With the organization, of Baptist churches in America, the same

question appeared and troubled the church at Providence, Rhode Island, with the resuit that a number of members in 1653 or- ganized the Oid or Six Principie Baptist Church. They have always claimed that they are the origi- nai church founded by Roger Wii- liams.

The church at Providence was the mother church and as time went on, other churches were formed at Rhode Island, Massa- chusetts, New York and Penn- sylvania. The second church was founded at Newport, R. I. in 1656 and the third at Richmond, R. I. some time before 1723. In New York state the first Six Principie Church was in the city of New York and was started before 1712. The second one in our state was in our own county of Fulton. This was called the Amsterdam church. A book published in 1827, en- titled, "History of Six Principies Church" by Richard Knight con- tains short histories of ail the churches of this denomination and the following quotation from this book is the, history of the Am- sterdam church. It states, ".This church originated in consequence of a number of members from the churches in the State of Rhode Island removing into that vicinity, mostly from Richmond church. These scattered sheep in Amster- dam, Broadalbin, etc. frequentiy associated. together, and occasion- ally assembled in devotion to

God. About 1796, William Ailen began to improve his gifts, by dispensing the word among them to good satisfaction, and the peo- ple gathered with attention. These members were recognized as a branch of Richmond church, and Mr. Allen was called by them to the work of the ministry, and set apart by ordination November 6, 1798, as an assistant elder to tlder Henry Joslin, who was then the pastor of the Richmond church," and they were considered a branch of that society. Being thus fur; nished with the administration of gospel ordinances they regularis attended thereto, and progressed in the ways of godiiness, and addi tions were made unto them. John Kenyon was ordained a deacon ir this branch October 25, 1802 anc they still increased; · yet being settled a great distance from their mother church and all the sister churches 'in the unlon-although united in love and peace within .the branch-they experienced much opposition and many threats from without; being surrounded iby societles of different senti- ment, which caused them greatly to desire the assistance of that able defender of the faith, Elder Joslin, their pastor, and they fre- quentiy and feelingly importuned him to come and settle with them - and he feeling the tender emo-

DUNN, GROS

Andrew Dunn, born Kilmarock, Ayrshire, Scotland Aug. 9, 1831, died where ? when ? son of David Dunn and Helen Carnduff, mar- ried where? June 1855, Louese (Liuysa) Gros born Sept. 6, 1828, rec. Fort Plain Dutch Ref. Oh., died Fort Plain, N. Y., age 75, dau. of Nicholas Gros and Cath- arine Anne Dygent. Andrew Dunn Jocated in Fort Piain, or vicinity, ca. 1851 and opened a jewelry store. In 1860 he is listed in the census of the Town of Minden as a watch maker. In 1880 he estab- lished in Fort Plain the jewelry firm of A. Dunn & Sons. I have inherited silver spoons which I be- lieve are his workmanship and would like to correspond with his descendants.

In 1790 John and Dalton (silver smith), Cresson's Alley. Fifth between Arch He Race streets, Philadelphia. served in the Revolution.
