專家說明
The donor William Hyslop (baptized in Haddington, Scotland 1714 - died Brookline 1796) was the son of James and Isobel (née Wilson) Hyslop. He came to Boston around 1740 and was an importer of goods from Glasgow, such as bibles. He married Mehitable (1719-1792), daughter of David and Elizabeth Stoddard, in 1750 and made his gift to the Church in the year of her death. He is recorded as third sergeant of the Ancient and Honourable Artillery Company in 1758.
