Background to the Congregationalist or Independent Churches :- (1)

This nonconformist denomination began as a movement within the Church of England, founded by Robert Browne. Its followers were at first called Separatists or Brownists, but were later known as Independents, and later still as Congregationalists. They were firmly suppressed, and in 1608 Browne's followers emigrated for a time to Amsterdam to escape persecution. But some returned, and in 1620 the church provided the London contingent of the passengers of the Mayflower when she sailed for America.

During the Commonwealth, Cromwell and several of his closest associates were Independents, though the official doctrine of the established church was then Presbyterian. When the monarchy was restored, the 1662 Act of Uniformity placed legal disabilities upon the sect, as it did upon other nonconformists. Although persecution was ended under William & Mary, by the 1689 Act of Toleration, meeting places were still subject to the granting of licences by either the county justices, the bishop or the archdeacon.

Background to the Independent Church in Dorchester :-

The first Independent church or chapel in Dorchester was founded in 1662 by the Revd William Benn, the Anglican minister at Holy Trinity, Dorchester, who had been ejected from his benefice. The church adopted Presbyterian doctrines. It met at The Priory, the home of Denzil Holles (1598-1679), and continued to do so after his death in 1680. In 1719 a meeting house was built in Pease Lane [Colliton Street] (2) but according to returns to the Commissioner earlier records for births marriages and deaths do not seem to have survived. Link to an account of The Old Dissenters Metting House

In 1776 a group split away from the Presbyterian church to form a Huntingdon Connection Methodist church, in Durngate Street, under the leadership of Thomas Molland. Link to more information about the Durngate Independent Church and its register of Baptisms (1788-1837)
