Jacob Bailey was born into a Congregational (religion) family, well before the American Revolution. At that time America was under the control of England. So, when he became an Anglican….. then an Anglican minister, the leap was acceptable. However, a part of the everyday services in the Anglican Church is an oath of allegiance to the King/Queenof England.

As the years went by, Jacob was more and more severely harassed by his neighbours, so that in desperation he took his family to live in Nova Scotia. At that time the whole area was a colony of England, and even in Nova Scotia, there were harsh attitudes towards Anglicans. There was no Canada, or U.S.A. Jacob’s life was hard, but he was a principled man.

Jacob grew up a generation after the Salem Witch Trials, about 15 miles from Salem. During his childhood he had a great fear of young girls….. Which became a fascination with them as he became a young man. Indeed, he married a very young woman eventually. As a young man living the American rural life Jacob did as the young did, “bundling” at night visits to girls homes to keep warm. He wrote of his experiences with women while he was in England being blessed as an Anglican minister.

He didn’t forget these sexual adventures when he became a father. When his eldest daughter became involved with a man and disappeared to Boston (also contemplated entering a nunnery), his letters never criticised her; he only implored her to come home and live a safe, loved life with the family.

He was a kind man, giving all he had as a religious minister, a teacher, a poet and writer, and a compassionate father and husband.
