“While seasons of suffering were endured, seasons of blessing were enjoyed,” the memorial marker states. “This monument stands to commemorate three centuries of service rendered to God and country by the saints of the First Baptist Church of Waterford.”
“This church has made noble contributions to the history of America. Her sons have shed their blood in the wars, which brought and preserved our several liberties and her members have contributed patriotic toil and tribute to the building of this great nation.”
