Port de Grave Methodist Records

What follows is a list of all Pike baptisms and marriages in the Port de Grave Methodist records held at PANL. This list constitutes a typescript of my handwritten extraction from photocopies of the original records, which is to say that I may have inadvertantly introduced some errors while transcribing and typing... as always, you should double-check against the original records. That said, if you spot any mistakes that I have made, please let me know at dapike@mun.ca. Additional Pike entries from other Newfoundland church records can also be found on my website.

Some comments about this list:

The entries below are in the same order as presented in the church records, which may not be in chronological order.
Unless I mistakenly overlooked an entry or two, this is a complete list of all Pike entries.

At PANL these records are contained in several volumes as follows:

Baptisms: 1836 - 1910, 1889 - 1896, 1913 - 1938 (I skipped the 1913-1938 volume)
Marriages: 1837 - 1910, 1915 - 1959 (I skipped the 1915-1959 volume)
Burials: 1913 - 1951 (I skipped this volume)

I extracted baptisms from the 1836-1910 volume in January 2007. In August 2008 I went through the 1889-1896 volume of baptisms (and found no Pike entries) as well as the marriages for 1837-1910.
