Notes
This biography is based in part on information supplied by Keith Hutchison of Durham, Connecticut. Professor Donald R. Gerlach of the University of Akron, Ohio provided additional information about Church’s marriage and his activities in America in the 1770s. Accounts of Church’s life are given in C. J. Palmer, Perlustration of Gt. Yarmouth, ii. 321-8; and J. S. Minard, Jnl. of American Hist. ii (1908), 48-63; but both contain some inaccuracies.
