Notes

This church apparently changed its name to First Universalist Church to match its character, and half a century or so later was merged into the Murray Universalist Church, Attleboro, and its edifice eventually converted into a handsome parking lot. Transcribed 6 October 2000 at the Murray Unitarian Universalist Church (yes, the name changed again), Attleboro, in whose possession the records are. Editorial remarks are square-bracketed; e.g. "[sic]."
