The first Presbyterian minister to settle on the Island was Rev. John Urquhart of the Church of Scotle * who. coming in 1800, made Princetown his headquarters. He organised e. comregatlon which. in- éiuding Bedeque on the south. extended from cw nd-ish on the East to Lot thirteen on the West. This congrwatlon as governed by an elected body of elders who, though drawn from various parts of the congregation, exercised their office in the different churches d the congregation without regard to the district they represented. Of the eleven original members of this very first Prince Edward Island aes- sion {our were Bedequo dnyaiiats WhOIQ nemea lhfllld b0 renumbered: Alexander Anderson, Males‘ Hooper. David Murray end Jenn Stuns-

Mr. Urquhart/s stay on the lei-end was short. He removed in 1802 to chatham, N3. His work ,wes not undes- the official svrervisiou 0f the moi-en but his organisation of the eonsreeetieu was recovniled ll being truly Presbyterian when on November e. 1W1. the Session met at Princetown and was constituted by MN. Peter Gordon. the first of- ficially settled Presbyterian pastor on Prim: Edward Island. Mr. Gordon's pastoral charge of St Peter's, Coveheed and Bey Fortune claims to be the first officially organised congregation on the Island but the fact that David Murray. one of the Bedeque elders. was wirpoinwd in 1608 to so to st. Peter's and assist in the ordination of elderekmlkht suggest that Presbyterian government for that corogregeticn was only tleen beina set up.

In Bedeque the Rev. John Urq

uhart is remembered best by his des- ccndents. His daughter Catherine who married Melee- vl-looper in i-h? early years of the new century, succeeded a governors daughter in the Hooper home (Major had married Ann Patterson in 1.794) and had the honor of bringing up six of Governor Pl”'"‘°"'$ Fluid‘ children in addition to a large number of her own. ell of whom turn- ed out to her credit. With her manse background it is perhaps little wonder that her husband was one of the original elders in Bcdcqilt church.
