At this writing, (Dec. 1950) we have not succeeded in ascertaining the parent^ e cf Eleazer West, (b. 17s2) nor any information con¬ cerning his 'wife except that her _iven name was Anna* As yet we rmve not learned many facts concerning Eleazer west. What we have was ob¬ tained from three sources: 1. The 1669 diary of my grandfather, ^aron E. West. 2. on indenture from the records at Goshen doted in 1799, dispos¬ ing of land owned by Eleazer west, deceased. 3. A letter from W. J. Coulter of Middletown, Orange County, New York informing us that Eleazer west ' was a Eaptist minister.

LETTER FRCi; 77. J. COULTER

The follov/ing- letter from Mr. Coulter of Middle- town, N. Y. gives us some interesting data.

#86 Watkins Ave., Middletown, IT. Y., October 31, 1930.

Mr. E. B. Comstock, North Dallas High School Dallas, Texas.

Dear Sir:-

With further reference to my letter of the 26th, I find that the Reverend Eleazer West was a minister of the Baptist faith who preached at a place now called lit. Hope, eight miles due west of Middletown, in those days it was called Deerpark. Four miles due north of lit. Hope or Deerpark was a thriving little village called New Vernon where the old school Baptist Church was founded by Elder Ebenezer 7/est, presumably a bro¬ ther or relative to Rev. Eleazer Nest.

On Mar. 25th, 1770, Oliver Delancey Esq. of New Yor City executed a deed or perpetual lease conveying to (50 acres) Messrs. V. G-illet, David Smith and Simeon Marsh lands lying in the tov/n of Deerpark to be held in trust for the use of a Protestant minister. Marsh • 2, 1771, David Johnston Esq. of New York City executed a deed for the same purpose and to the same persons, 25 acres lying next to the previous lot. There were two congregations, one Baptist presided over by Rev. Eleazer VTest, the other was Presbyterian and met at the house of Elijah Reeves. In 1735 the State of New York passed a law allowing churches to incorporate. The Presbyterian faith incorporated and claimed the land and after some little arbitration the Rev. Eleazer Nest was paid 10 pounds and moved off.

I have looked up the history of the Baptist faith in Orange County and in Orange County was

fi nd that the first Baptist faith a t Parwick, Orange C ounty, N. Y.,

more the Rev. Benedict was brought to Narwick from Ctratfielu people at bably the Son::, beca pork or Mt

, Conn, because there were V/arwick. T is leads me to Rev. Eleazer Ne s t c nme f r :n use there were Connecticut . Hope where he pretched.

many Connecticut believe that pro-

ai’ound Strafield, people at Deer- I imagine you will

find that his father’s name was Abial or Abiaii Test of Connecticut or possibly Massachusetts*

Very truly yours,

W. J. Coulter.

of the Hew. England his. Gen. Register, hone of the above dates are included there, he notice, however, that the name, ^leazer, appears in the 1790 census from Ul¬ ster Co., Wallkill Town instead of from Goshen, Orange Co. This'is not strange, however, because the places are not very far apart.- It is likely that the homestead was in Wallkill and that hleazer went to Goshen, which was at that time the nearest town, for his mail.
