"...an attempt has been made to narrate briefly, not merely the history of the Presbytery of Big Spring, but of all the churches, whether Reformed Presbyterian, or Associate, or Associate Reformed, or United Presbyterian, which have existed or do still exist within the territorial bounds of the Presbytery; for they have been so intimately related to each other that their histories cannot well be separated...All records, and documents, and memoirs, and family papers, and family traditions which could be found, bearing upon the history of Scottish Presbyterianism between the Susquehanna River and the Allegheny mountain, have been carefully examined..." - Preface.
