Note

Note: Census 1851: Not enumerated

Note: York County and Carleton County Probate Files indexes were searched for the subject names Henry Blake 1786-1932. I also search York and Carleton County Registry Office indexes on microfilm for the periods 1849-1873 and for 1832-1899. Unfortunately, I did not find the name Henry Blake in any of the above. In Carleton County Probate, I found these Blakes: Thelma 1918, William 1864 and Edith I Blake 1934. In York County Probate, I found these Blakes: Charles 1970, Emily 1925 and Mary 1966. In Carleton County Registry indexes, I found these Blake entries: Mercy, grantee; William, grantee; George, Mercy and William, grantor (seller) and William, copy of last Will. The Probate and Registry record groups I searched are where one finds Wills. If a subject name is not found in these records, a Will was not registered or probated.

Hello William:

I am sorry I can't answer your question but here is what I have you might be interested in.

According to my research the Free Baptist Church in Woodstock now called Woodstock United Baptist Church began with an Organizational Meeting August 22, 1834, when a little group of ten members met. The organization was effected under the leadership of Elder Samuel Hartt, ably assisted by Elders Charles McMullen and William E. Pennington. (Elder Samuel Hartt was my gt gt grandfather.)

I visited the church in June of 2004 and took a picture of the plaque on the wall. This is what it said.

Organized 1834 by Rev. Sam'l Hartt.

The church now has about 900 members and an average attendance on Sunday morning of 400 - 500. There are three pastors, - a Senior minister,a minister of music & a minister of Christian Education and Youth Work.

In-Reply-To:

You can view the records of the Wakefield Baptist Church at the PANB, MC2671. Some of the records are dated 1804. I believe the original records are held at Acadia University.
