Rev. & Mrs. BARRETT were appointed as missionaries to Antioch, Turkey, in 
   1900, but when they arrived in New York it was decided they should go to 
   Puerto Rico, according to a report on the organization of the Christian 
   Church South, and its early ministers & missionaries, to the 36th regular 
   session of the Southern Convention of Congregational Christian Churches, 
   Reidsville, 2 May 1944, by historian Major W.E. MacClenny.  The report 
   appears in an article ("Suffolk News-Herald," May 3, 1944, p. 7) posted at:
