 Editor's Note: This is a previously unpublished manuscript provided a descendant of the author who gave their blessing on its use, hoping it will be of help and interest to historians and others.    It was transcribed from a faded, worn mimeographed copy, some typescript and some writing, so there are words missing and may be errant.  Welcome help identifying initials, etc.  Words in bold are ones we were uncertain of, and there are blanks for unintelligible words.  This is the first discovered of its kind of the history of the Raven-Taylor-Hales Brethren in America, and it is unclear whether the author was still in fellowship at the time of its writing., but it is a favorable, relatively objective history.
