I am creating this page for this historic church on the request of Pastor Erik Maloy of First Church in CHarlestown, and was told to use the history from their website to create the page. As I was at work at the time and on my phone, I didn't have access to make the proper citation to it.

Founder of Harvard University

[edit]

I made a change to the opening paragraph where it describes John Harvard as the founder of Harvard. John Harvard did not found Harvard himself as it was started two years prior to his donations. He did donate his personal library of books and money. Harvard was then named after John Harvard. It would also be appropriate to say that he was "a" founder of the college. I thought benefactor and namesake sounded better than "John Harvard, a founder of Harvard." So I included "a founder, benefactor, and namesake."

I created this page for the historic congregation at the request of Rev. Erik Maloy their current pastor. He can be reached at erik@fccharleston.com I was given permission to use the information on their history page for the wiki page. I have added the citations needed since I was at work on my phone at the time of creating the page.
