Rector of the Diocesan School in Lunenburg County.

Elected by Church Convention as Supervising Clergyman or Visitor (Before Bishop Madison's Consecration).

Selected by the Church as Chairman of its Committee to cope with Mr. Thomas Jefferson against his act for the despoilation of the Church, with the final result that the Court of Appeals being equally divided, the statute stood, without being declared constitutional.

He died in Lunenburg County, 1815.


This pew has been restored and endowed by his great-grandchildren, Mrs. Annie Cameron Collins, and Bennehan Cameron.
