Elizabeth Newman, Co-Chair of the 2017 Anniversary Committee asked Bill Millar to write the third century history of the First Parish Church. He said he would. Mildred Jones delivered a box of calendars, programs, transcribed interviews, a binder with many clipped articles and generally historical "stuff" along with Ashby's history of the church. After reviewing this box of information, Millar then raided the archives, file folder by file folder, for more. The book that you have in your hands is a product of a committee of three: William K. Millar Jr., the author with Liz Newman and Mildred Jones, the editors. With a century of information, dozens of photos and a complete index--this book is a necessary addition to any Brunswick history buff's collection. William K. Millar Jr. born and raised in Brunswick, Maine, began attending First Parish Church with his parents Bill and Edith Millar in 1951. During that time he rose from shepherd to wise man wearing the fez in the Christmas pageant. He holds degrees from the University of New Hampshire and California State University, Dominguez Hills. Retired as lieutenant colonel in the US Army Reserve and from the Maine Department of Education, he lives in Harpswell with his wife Susan. Millar's daughters, Heather and Laura, were members of the "multitude of the Heavenly Host" in the Christmas pageant as well. He is the author of Where Is Crusader Rabbit Now That We Really Need Him? a memoir of the Vietnam War.
