Synopsis

Discover the early days and enduring community of Boston Church in Esquesing.

This historical account traces the Scotch Block era in Esquesing Township, from rugged pioneer life to the evolution of church and community. Readers glimpse settlement challenges, daily routines, and the people who shaped a faith community in 19th century Upper Canada.


Through detailed chapters, the book weaves together local stories, church records, and the milestones that tied together neighbors across Nelson, Trafalgar, and Nassagaweya. It highlights the growth of the congregation, its transition to self-sustaining status, and the social life surrounding worship, temperance, and shared labor.



  • Examine early settlement life, from rail-like logs to brick homes and mature farms.

  • Learn how the church and its members built structures, preserved records, and supported one another.

  • Discover notable figures, pastorates, and moments of congregational change.

  • See how community ties extended beyond Esquesing to nearby townships through subsistence, schooling, and charity.


Ideal for readers interested in Ontario church history, local genealogy, and the social fabric of 1800s rural Canada.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
