Notes on Catholic Presbyterian Church. Submitted to SCChest2-L mail list
• From Minutes of Catholic Presbyterian Church, Chester county, 1840-1884: Catholic Presbyterian Church was the oldest Presbyterian Church in that area with the possible exception of Richardson Presbyterian Church. From May 1751 until 1773 Covenanters/Reformed Presbyterian, ARP and Presbyterians worshipped together. For this reason it was called Catholic.
