Methodist Ministers and Lay Officers

[ebocrew]

Hello,

Could some kind person out there tell me if there is a similar but earlier publication to Who's Who In Methodism 1933. Containing both Ministers and Lay Officers?

There is a list of Ministers' names and dates only to 1969 at the Manchester University Library website -- Google on "Hill's arrangement".

There is a book of mainly Ministers to 1896 on archive.org -- put alphabeticalarra00hilliala in the Search box. As Hill is mentioned as an author, it's probably the same thing.

I have a copy of Joseph Ritson's 1911 book "The Romance of Primitive Methodism" which has some biographical details, though Murphy has so far guaranteed that I've yet to find anyone who's been asked about here :(.
