Excerpt from Annals of King's Chapel From the Puritan Age of New England to the Present Day, Vol. 1 of 2 The chief sources of information are, 'of course, the records of the church. These have been preserved almost entire, the first entries being in a parchment-bound folio, 1686 - 1719, con taining all that we possess of records and accounts for that period, somewhat heterogeneously mingled. Seven thin folios, besides various ledgers and account books, comprise the follow ing period till I 776. Since the Revolution, the records have been kept with even greater care; but, as containing less of general interest, these will be more sparingly drawn upon in the narrative. The King's Chapel Registers of Births, Mar riages, and Deaths are also of much value. Their fortunate recovery in 1805 from Dr. Caner's heirs, after having been lost for thirty years, gives emphasis to the importance (which may here be urged) of putting them in print beyond the chance of destruction. The quotations from papers and records are uniformly given in the spelling of the original; but the punctuation has been adapted to the sense in every case.
