Abstract
The membership lists and minutes to business meetings of the New England Baptist Church of Washington, Wood County. The church
was organized by members of the locality who belonged to the Bethel Baptist Church of Parkersburg and was named after its
first meeting place, the New England schoolhouse. The church minutes contain mention of revival services, the ordaining and
placement of clergy and the appointment of church lay leaders, such as deacons and moderators. The membership lists consist
of information on the status of members especially noting those who are deceased, dismissed, or transferred to other churches.
There is also a church covenant and rules of order.
