An Entire Religious Community of Granville Ohio
Dr Andrew Reed in the Narrative of his visit to the American Churches describes Granville Ohio as a small wholly religious settlement started by ninety New England settlers. They prayed for a blessed wilderness settlement, built a church, maintain strict discipline, and report church members by district. The pastor oversees conduct and reads reports from the pulpit, shaping restraint in a close community. There is annual church support, and family prayer is noted as lacking in a quoted case. There are mentions of a large bequest rumor and a 200,000 pound English bequest to a city university, with government info suggesting progress next session.
