WHO'S WHO

Source: The Pilgrims of Iowa
by Truman O. Douglass 1919

This chapter is an attempt to list alphabetically the Pilgrim pastors of 
the decades, locating each, and a little more fully sketching a few. The 
list is not complete chiefly because the records are not. For a number of 
years the Welsh associations were not reported at all. Doubtless some have 
been inadvertently overlooked; and the names of a few have been purposely 
omitted because they simply passed through the state, and their ministry 
was of no significance because so brief.
