Rev. Hugh D. McMillan Gravestone Inscription
- Title
- Rev. Hugh D. McMillan Gravestone Inscription
- Creator
- Unknown
- Date
- 1860
- Description
- This item is an image of the grave of Rev. Hugh D. McMillan, and on the inscriptions it notes he was the Pastor for the Cedarville Reformed Presbyterian Church. As he died in 1860, this would mean that he moved and established the church in 1829. This lines up with another secondary source which claims in the fall of 1828 he discussed with his family a move to Ohio, as his “antipathy to slavery soon made his position untenable.” Yet this antipathy to slavery is contradicted with our 5th item, the census record which notes he owned slaves in 1830.
