"An Historical Sketch of the First Hillsboro Baptist Church" by W. Camp is a historical account penned in the late 19th century. This book details the origins and development of the First Hillsboro Baptist Church, chronicling the early settlers’ struggles and achievements from their arrival in the area. The narrative highlights the church's role in the community and its significance to the settlers in Hillsboro, New Brunswick. The book begins with the arrival of the Steeves family in 1763, who faced considerable hardships as they established their new home in a remote area. Despite isolation and scarcity, they persevered, eventually leading to the foundation of a Baptist congregation in 1822. Key figures discussed include Henry Steeves, who preached amidst the hardships, and Rev. Joseph Crandall, who played a crucial role in formalizing the church's organization. The narrative captures the growth and challenges faced by the church over the decades, including significant events, leadership changes, and the eventual establishment of additional churches stemming from the First Hillsboro Baptist Church. Through rich historical details, the book paints a vivid picture of the faith and resilience of this pioneering community. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
