The years as given in the list, indicate the first appearance of the names of the new members on the minutes, which was in many cases some years after their ordination. The letter P. is placed after the names of the graduates of the college at Princeton, New Jersey; Y. after those of the graduates of Yale; and H. after the graduates of Harvard. The word “received,” is placed after the names of those who were admitted as ordained ministers from other churches; and the place whence they were received is mentioned, whenever it was stated on the minutes.
