The History of Williamstown Baptist Church 1868 - 2004

The history of Williamstown Baptist Church begins in 1868, so it encompases a significant portion of the history of the State of Victoria.

We are fortunate that for the Centenary of the Church in 1968, a historian, identified now only as J.M.W. was commissioned to write a booklet covering the first 100 years. The text of this work forms the earlier part of the history presented on this website. If desired, the full text can be downloaded as a Microsoft Word document by Clicking Here. I (Mal Dow) was a member of the church at that time, having been baptised there in 1966. so I remember the excitement of those years, and am keen to extend that history to the present day. You can read the full history online, as it develops, in the following pages.
