Description
Elizabeth Newman, Co-Chair of the 2017 Anniversary Committee asked Bill Millar to write the third century history of the First Parish Church. He said he would. Mildred Jones delivered a box of calendars, programs, transcribed interviews, a binder with many clipped articles and generally historical "stuff" along with Ashby's history of the church. After reviewing this box of information, Millar then raided the archives, file folder by file folder, for more. The book that you have in your hands is a product of a committee of three: William K. Millar Jr., the author with Liz Newman and Mildred Jones, the editors. With a century of information, dozens of photos and a complete index-this book is a necessary addition to any Brunswick history buff's collection.
