Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Colonial History of the Parish of Mount Carmel as Read in Its Geologic Formations, Records and Traditions
The aim of the writer has been to place before the reader, incidents in the lives of men and families, with biographical sketches of character, and, so far as possible, illustrated by photographs of houses still preserved that date back to the first century of settlement. Few individuals now live who can contribute from memory or tradition, events prior to 1800. At that date, seventy years had passed, during which time the conception and carrying out the greater part of the structure which now completes the map of Mount Carmel, had been completed. The question is often asked, Who was the person that gave the name to the parish? So far as can be ascertained, satisfactory replies will be given, with, perhaps, some of doubtful issue, leaving a field for future historians to explore.
