I found this on the web, while looking for an Alexander WIGGINS of Philadelphia, NJ born, and by occupation a church minister... Can you tell me anything about this fellow? I am wondering if they may not be one and the same fellow... "Articles of incorporation for the Bethel Methodist Episcopal Church of East Coventry were filed on December 10, 1867 in the court of common pleas of Chester County. Bethel remained on the Pottstown Circuit until 1868 when Bethel and Springville (Spring City) Methodist Church, of which Bethel is the mother church, united to form a new circuit. This circuit existed until 1874 when Springville's growth was such that it became a single charge. Bethel remained alone for one year, but the necessity for more married men's charges caused the Philadelphia Conference of March 1875 to annex Bethel to the Temple and Cedarville charges which constituted a married man's charge under the name of Temple and New Bethel. The Reverend H.U. Sebring was appointed pastor of the united circuit. In 1890, Bethel was made a separate charge and the Reverend Alexander Wiggins was appointed pastor. In 1894, during the pastorate of the Reverend William Beyers, the parsonage was constructed and Bethel was made a married man's charge, fully supporting its own pastor and work." Thanks, Vince
