Rev. Joseph Avery Collier (1828-1864), a minister of the Reformed Protestant Dutch Church, born in Massachusetts.
“He was a clear, methodical, persuasive, and eloquent preacher. His literary attainments were unusually large, and entirely consecrated to the ministry. As a preacher to children and the young men he is entitled to the first rank.” – M’Clintock & Strong.
