Cross Creek Presbyterian Early Baptisms, Part 1

It's time for spring cleaning and I've been busy like a bee.  But wait, here is a new old find.  At some point in time, someone transcribed some old Cross Creek Presbyterian baptisms and snail mailed them to me.  I wish I could remember who it was.

Cross Creek Presbyterian Church is an old church in Burgettstown, Washington, PA.  This area is of interest to me as I have been researching the John SMITH family of Hopewell Twp, Washington, PA.  Of course, I have other kin buried in their old cemetery, but that is a story for another day.

Do you know hard it is to document a name like John SMITH?  As my interest is in SMITH and PATTERSON, these were the only names transcribed.  So enjoy this beginning of the past.
