Mermaid/Lot 48/Churchill Church of Scotland Pastoral Charge

Administrative history

In 1894 the Church of Scotland began ministering to a circuit comprised of Mermaid, Lot 48, Churchill, and adjacent communities in Prince Edward Island. The first minister for this charge was the newly ordained Rev. Daniel McLean of Mt. Herbert. Rev. MacLean had been educated at Prince of Wales College and taught in Island schools for fifteen years before studying divinity at Pine Hill College in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He administered the circuit until his death in 1919. Rev. D. M. Lamont then took up the duties of the charge.

Custodial history

Scope and content

This fonds consists of three baptismal registers microfilmed in chronological order. The first two books record the baptisms preformed by Rev. Daniel MacLean in the years 1894-1914 and 1913-1919. The third book is a record of baptisms performed by Rev. D. M. Lamont from 1920-1928. Each book is preceded by an alphabetical index of its contents. The fonds also contains deaths (1925-1926) and marriages (1921-1925) for the Mermaid, Lot 48 and Churchill circuit.
