Trove Tuesday - Methodist Circuit in Lake Macquarie

One needs to visit here, http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article155388654 on Trove, to read this lengthy article from 1910 about the Methodist Church Circuit in Lake Macquarie which mentions many people involved in the early years as Methodism spread to settlements around the Lake.

It states that "The actual beginning of Methodism in this Circuit was made over thirty-one years ago, at the Brush or Upper Martinsville, one of the remote places of the Circuit in the year 1878" and goes on to follow the growth of Methodism in our region mentioning many of the people involved.

It is interesting to note that the article includes photos, including images of the Rev. C J MacAulay and Mr. T King of Toronto.
