Dissenters voluntarily formed themselves
into associated bodies. The first public
document put forth from such a body was
issued in 1643, ' The Confession of Seven
Churches in London.'
The Baptists early organized themselves into such associations, and the geographical- distribution of these is of interest. They radiated from various centres, e.g. Lincoln,. London, Coventry, Salisbury, and Tiverton, and the old Lollard district of the- beech woods near Chesham. Lincoln and Coventry evangelized the Midlands, so that Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Northampton- shire, and Warwickshire were well looked after. Great tracts were never touched- The six northern counties knew next to nothing of these associations. Cornwall,- Devon, Somerset, Wilts, Dorset, Hants,. Berks, and Oxfordshire presented an almost solid block under one sway.
At a date which has never been fixed with certainty the General Baptists became or- ganized into one body, but before then there- were numerous local associations, of which, we trace at various times those of Stafford- shire, Lincolnshire, Northants, Leicestershire, Bucks, with the Western, the Northern, and the Kentish.
The earliest records of the Western, Association begin with a meeting at Wells on May 24, 1653, and from then onwards there are records of meetings held annually at various centres in Somersetshire and in Devonshire. In the early days Thomae Collier, a minister of considerable eminence living at Luppitt, near Honiton, was a
