Engraved Portraits of the First Methodist Divines
P_MSS357
Summary: This volume contains images of Methodist theologians, leaders, and clergy members, as well as scenes of a few notable places within the Methodist church. All of the images are engravings. A number of notable engravers are credited, for example Thomas Illman, E. Mackenzie (Methodist Book Concern), J. W. Paradise, William D. Smith, and Thomas B. Welch. Many of the engravings were published at the Methodist Book Room in New York.
Additional Details: This volume was donated to the library by Eliza Allison Barry (1846-1922), the wife of Osgood Andrew Barry (1847-1907). On July 3, 1915, Bishop Joseph S. Key presented the volume to Bishop Warren Akin Candler on behalf of Mrs. Barry. According to a tipped-in note, the collection had been in O. A. Barry's family since antebellum times. The note reports that O. A. Barry's father, Judge George La Vallon Barry, had marked the abolitionists in the collection with a capital A beneath the image and an X on the page (ten portraits in the collection bear these markings).
