Hi Faye,

My husband worked at the "First Church" in Cambridge for a few years, and
found out a little about its history. Some of the books and documents
about the origins of Cambridge are in the church's "archives." And, I
think some are in the "archives" at Harvard University:

Gathered in 1633/36, First Church is one of the oldest continuing Protestant
congregations in North America. From the days of the Puritans to the
pluralistic world in which we now make our pilgrim way, we have kept the
faith fresh and free, persuaded that “God hath yet more light and truth to
break forth from the Word” (John Robinson). Read about our history by
clicking on the links to the left of this page.

This page lists the "Timeline" going back to 1630:
