Title
Serving ‘the North East Corner of Creation’: The Community Role of a Rural Clergyman in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, 1829-1870
Abstract
The Rev. Ammi James Parker (1802-1877) served as a Congregational minister in the parish of Danville throughout his career. The author argues that the Vermont-born Parker combined aspects of New England’s community-tied pastorate of the eighteenth century and its more professional ministry of the nineteenth century.
