Was there a Seventh Day Baptist Church before 1820 in the area which was then within the boundaries of "Sempronius," one of the townships within then-Cayuga County? Presentday "Sempronius" is 4 miles from presentday "Scott," but "Sempronius" in 1820 was much larger. Sanford's "Central New York State" volume gives Scott as "organized 1820" and original records at Cornell Univ. Also, does anyone know the exact date that the Salem, West Virginia SDB church was founded? The "Newport Trilogy" says in a footnote to the Hubbard genealogy that it was after the Rev War. I had family in Hampshire County, VA at the time of the Revolution, and I'm curious whether (a) the SDBs were in Virginia west of the mountains in the 1770s, and (b) whether Salem was at that time in Hampshire County. Especially since my family name was "Burgett," which some people speculate about sounding like "Burdick," and I have a Nancy Barbara Burgett (1769-1858) married to Thomas RODGERS (1767-1850). The surname "Rogers" pops out at me in SDB records. Thanks. Jim Johnson
