  1. Hi. Is there a record of there in Easton each lived? Does the Blackrock Church date to the 1700’s?

    1. Hi David,
      Not sure what you are asking about. Black Rock Church in Fairfield? The Baptist Church in Easton is now run by a division of their Black Rock ministries. The Baptist Church in Easton dates to 1829. I believe the Black Rock Church in Fairfield was established in the Black Rock district of Bridgeport in 1849.
