Synopsis

Discover how a small band grew into a region's Methodist heart in Troy, New York, through a detailed, source‑driven history.

This book chronicles the origins of the first Methodist society in Troy and traces its development year by year. It gathers available data from local histories, reports, and records to present a clear picture of how the eight or nine societies expanded over time.

With careful attention to illustrations, statistics, and historical notes, the work aims to be a reliable reference for those interested in Methodism, local history, and the people who kept these churches alive through the centuries.

  • Draws on multiple local histories and memoirs to compile a coherent narrative.
