General List of Members Comprising all who are or have been Members, at any period from the Organization of the Church to Jan. 1, 1865 Explanation:-- The letter [C] after a name, denotes that the person was received by certificate from some other church. All others were admitted on profession of their faith. The letter [r] at the end of a name, signifies that the person had before been a member of this Church, but having asked and received a certificate of dismission, now returned it, or brought a new one, and was re-admitted. The letter [w] inserted in the name of a femaile, signifies widow. In the names of married women, who were so at the time of admission, the name of the husband is inserted in parenthesis. To ascertain whether any person is still a member or not, and if not, when and how he was dismissed, see the two Alphabetical Lists, which follow this. In those Lists the names of women who have been married since their admission, as well as those who had been married before, take the names of their husbands. 1852 The South Church was constituted November 8th, 1852, consisting of twenty-nine members, who presented letters from other churches, as follows:-- Benedict BURWELL, - [C] 3rd Congregational Church, New Haven Polly (Benedict) BURWELL, - [C] 3rd Congregational Church, New Haven [Given name should be Dolly, see list of Present Members] Charles B.

MOFFAT; Margaret, Catharine, Mary & Sarah MOFFAT; Gilbert F. MOORE, Jennette EDDY, Catharine C. JONES, Caroline W. BURWELL, Robert DYAS, and Seth GILLETTE, whose names stand on our books as members of this Church, have united with other churches, without asking letters of dismission from us, as was required by one of our Standing Rules, to which they were parties. "Resolved, That notwithstanding the irregularity of their course in this particular, we accept it as at least an expression of their desire to be released from their connection with this Church, and that accordingly our Clerk be directed to enter their names on our Records as dismissed as members from this date (22 Nov 1864) in the same sense as if they had asked and received from us letters of dismission and recommendation, in the usual form."
