In cases of names and dates, the Church Records have been followed. Facts for the Parish History have been gathered here and there from sources as nearly reliable as human memory and human records can be. There is a deep consciousness that much more than has here been re- corded has preserved the life of the parish through all these years. Innumberable sacrifices, innumerable acts of love and devotion have passed so gently, so quietly and so naturally into the daily round of the parish life, that they have been recorded only by One who sees all and knows all. *** end ***
