Browse the Church of Christ records in South Hampton, New Hampshire

The Church of Christ in South Hampton, New Hampshire was organized in 1743 with fifteen members, shortly after the town was incorporated by separating from Massachusetts. The first minister ordained in the South Hampton church was Rev. William Parsons, who served from 1743 until he was dismissed in 1762. The second settled minister, Rev. Nathaniel Noyes, was ordained in 1763 and dismissed in 1801. The church did not have another settled minister after Noyes, and the congregation was dissolved in 1827 when Ruth Palmer, the last member of the church, died.
