Biography

Waugh of the Methodist Episcopal Church, NY, in 1829. There is a photocopy of the register from Joseph Pryor's bible, but no information about its present whereabouts. The bible seems to have passed down in the family of Joseph Pryor's daughter Rebecca, who married Mordecai Fulton Doughty.
