While at the Vermont Historical Society Leahy Library, I was able to take a look at a booklet entitled The One Hundredth Anniversary of the Methodist Church: North Ferrisburgh, Vermont. It included a list of pastors who served North Ferrisburgh.
As many French Canadians living in Ferrisburgh and Vergennes got married in non-Catholic churches—even if their children were baptized by a Catholic priest—I thought it would be useful to have this list handy to compare it with the information mentioned in the vital records.
