Notes

• History of the Sachem Street Church - page 72: "Mrs. Thankful Hempstead, the mother of the late Rev. Henry E. Hempstead, of the New England Conference, was among the most respected of the earlier members. Two of her daughters, Mrs. Maria Bowers and Mrs. Esther Farrington, live in the grateful recognition of this church, which blesses the memory of the translated mother, whose Christian life was as illustrious as it was valuable."
• Chapter VII, pg 134 - 143 "History of Main Street M. E. Church": "Rev. Henry E. Hempstead was son of Mr. Ebenezer Hempstead. He was born in Norwich, June 12, 1820, and regenerated September 1835, under the ministry of Rev. William Livesey, by whom he was baptized. His mother, Mrs. Thankful Hempstead, was highly devout, and seems to have accomplished much for the moral and religious destiny of her family. His father died, leaving him a child, and early in life he entered upon type-setting." - - - A lengthy account of Henry's life follows.
