Notes
General:
"1797.
The next preacher [at Provincetown] was Rev. Joseph Snelling, who preached on the sabbath, a part of the time, at Truro. He was followed by Rev. Robert Yallalee, who was the first minister of the Methodist Episcopal Church who preached in Wellfleet. He came here several times on invitation in the early part of 1797. After him, in these occasional visits, came Revs. Jacob Rickhow, Smith Weeks, John Broadhead, Joseph Snelling, Edward Whittle, Allen H. Cobb, Philip Munger, and Elijah Willard, all of whom were devout, self-sacrificing men of God. Some of our mothers in Israel can well remember all of them except the first two ; and some of their names are particularly endeared to New England Methodists." 5
