Unfortunately, I don’t know where you can buy them, but I do have these photo credits, which might get you started:

Photos:
eBay.com: 1904 postcard of church.
Harter, Eugene William and Willis Boughton. Chronicles of Erasmus Hall: 1787 drawing of second church building.

A quick curiosity search of ebay indicates there are indeed more copies: http://goo.gl/E4A6f

Good luck!
Erin

My ancester was Polhamus, the first minister at this church. I would love to be ble to buy a copy of this drawing. Do you know how I might find the person to sell my a copy?

Please let me know.
Jan

Though of course I am currently still embedded in the monster. But yes, it seems like a living organism that you can’t expel. A good one!

That song’s worse than “Inshallah,” whose only lyrics are “inshallah.”

PS Dinner at my place this week?

How wonderful that “Blue” touches you as it did me. I was introduced to it in a little town in France, near Nice, by an English Artist (sigh, crush…..) in 1973.
