NOTE. Rev. Robert McDowall was the first regularly sent Presbyterian Missionary to Upper Canada. He was a native of Saratoga County, New York, educated at Williams' College, Schenectady, N.Y., and sent by the Synod of the Reformed Dutch Church of Albany as a Missionary to the U. E. L. refugees of the Bay of Quinte District, numbers of whom came from near Albany and points on the Hudson River, and were members of that denomination before leaving. He reached Kingston early in the spring of 1798, and soon went to Bath and Fredericksburgh, and settled in the latter township, where be remained until his death in 1841. During the first two years he worked as a missionary at large, and then organized congregations at Bath and in Fredericksburgh and Ernest Town, three miles north of Bath. He became the regular minister of these, and had churches built. He continued his regular mission visitations to Kingston and Prince Edward County, sometimes going as far west as where London now stands. He married probably more persons than any other minister in Upper Canada. His register was given to Queen's College, Kingston, since his death, by R. J. McDowall, his grandson, now residing in Kingston, and is kept in the vault of Queen's. The following are extracts from that register. Some pages are so dim from years that it is difficult to decipher them. In July, 1898, a centennial was held at the McDowall Memorial Church, Sandhurst, Fredericksburgh, where he died, and where his remains and those of most members of his family lie buried. It was attended by thousands. T.W.C.
