275TH ANNIVERSARY TRIVIA

“Did You Know?

John Brockway, one of our sixth pastor’s seven children, a lawyer and active citizen of the town, in 1834 built the house across from the Church park on Maple Street called the Conference House.  The Conference House was rented for meetings of all kinds, singing school and the first meeting place of the few Baptists here at the time.

As a child, I remember going by the building, which was now used as a private residence, and seeing a bunch of dead flowers on a stand in the window.  A bachelor lived there with his mother and when she died people said that he never changed anything in the house, including the bouquet of flowers.

Mildred Dimock, Historian
