Samuel Hopkins/Sarah Osborn

Sarah Osborn -- holds church services in her home, mostly attended by Blacks -- possibly where Joseph Johnson attended in 1770 in Newport? Could have crossed paths with Bristol Yamma and John Quamine, who were being trained to be missionaries in Africa?

Samuel Hopkins -- asked by both the "white and Indian populations" of stockbridge to be their minister after John Sergeant dies, but declines. Note lack of Indian agency -- they are working together with the whites.
