Additional information and Comments
It is my understanding that Seabury did not return directly to Conn, but came first to Saint John New Brunswick, where the Loyalists had fled, or as you would call them, the Royalists, and preached in the church they established in their new city, which was the forerunner of Trinity Church, which still exists in the city. I am looking for a diary entry of some sort to confirm this belief, but of course, there is no such thing in the city in which I live, just this story that he was here for several months. Well, if there is anything you can point me to that I can access, I would appreciate it and then we can add this information to his story. I do walking tours of the church, many Americans come, and they are fascinated with the Royal Coat of Arms from the Boston Council Chamber as a link to America. Our first few miniters came from the Eastern US too.
