Female Preachers - the Hot Topic for Tuesday's Branch Meeting

We will be live steaming the meeting. Check back on our website for the link. http://www.durham.ogs.on.ca


Jim Bowen will be speaking on "She was What??" - Early 19th Century Travelling Female Preachers - Dedication, Heroics, Scandal and Tragedy 

We think of travelling preachers as male in the early time frame, but this was not so. Jim will be talking about early female preachers, with an emphasis on the Bible Christian Connexion and their Early Female Itinerant Preachers - about 60 of them. Jim has a multitude of stories that will enrich our knowledge of these early travelling preachers and their trials and tribulations.

Time allowing, the meeting will include TONI Tidbits (w.r.t. the huge OGS name and resource index), and a Brick Wall Bomb (suggested solutions to a stubborn genealogical problem from an audience member).
