Biography

Edward Tompkins was born about 1830.^[1] Minister in Hyde Park in 1880 and 1892. Pastor of First Baptist Church of Ridgewood, N. J.

Previous to this time [1850] the Baptists held a series of meetings [at East Park] that were very fruitful. An elderly man, Mr. R. E. Lansing of Poughkeepsie, informed me that these meetings were the nucleus of the Baptist Church of Hyde Park. Among those professing the Baptist faith were the Lansings; Susan Van Wagner; Lewis Lansing and the Reverand E. Tompkins.^[2]
