Founding Member of SDA church?

I'm writing to ask a question about the occupation listed here. Was she a founding member of the SDA church? I was aware that she was responsible for bringing the Sabbath doctrine to the congregation in Vermont, as noted here, but was not aware that she was a founding member of the SDA church. Can someone please clarify, and provide a citation for that information? Thanks! Sdbhist (talk) 19:07, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE: Sources cited inside article indicate she was not a founding member of the SDA church, but joined near the end of her life. I have updated the summary box, removing only the word "founding." Sdbhist (talk) 18:49, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
