We will highlight the luminous figures whose leadership inspired
the work of many. Some of these include John Murray's fateful arrival on the
shores of New Jersey, "Father" Hosea Ballou's missionary zeal throughout New
England, Olympia Brown's zeal as the first denominationally ordained woman
minister in the U.S., Joseph F. Jordan's work in Norfolk, Virginia combining
ministry, school principal, and publishing of a paper for African American
Universalists, and many others! As we fill in these biographies from the past,
we will also include contemporary oral histories compiled from interviews with
recent Universalist leaders, such as Gordon "Bucky" McKeeman.
