You can view the records of the Wakefield Baptist Church at the PANB, MC2671. Some of the records are dated 1804. I believe the original records are held at Acadia University.

According to my research the Free Baptist Church in Woodstock now called Woodstock United Baptist Church began with an Organizational Meeting August 22, 1834, when a little group of ten members met. The organization was effected under the leadership of Elder Samuel Hartt, ably assisted by Elders Charles McMullen and William E. Pennington. (Elder Samuel Hartt was my gt gt grandfather.) I visited the church in June of 2004 and took a picture of the plaque on the wall. This is what it said. Organized 1834 by Rev. Sam'l Hartt. Members: Simon Baker Samuel Raymond Amos C. Tolford David Marston John P. Lougee Hugh Baker Joseph Noble Stephen Parsons Mrs. Step'h Parsons E.M. Truesdale Deacons Stephen Parson Elizha Baker Clerk E.M. Truesdale The church now has about 900 members and an average attendance on Sunday morning of 400 - 500. There are three pastors, - a Senior minister,a minister of music & a minister of Christian Education and Youth Work.
