About John Brainerd

John Brainerd was a Presbyterian minister who served as a reverend and a missionary to the Native Americans in New Jersey and New York before, during and after the American Revolutionary War. His missionary duties also took him to various White settlements in these areas. While conducting his missionary duties at Mount Holly, in New Jersey, he was subjected to many hardships and incursions at the hand of British and Hessian troops. Brainered also served on the board of Trustees at the College of New Jersey. The Brainerd brother's life and acclaimed missionary efforts among the various Indian nations during the revolutionary era have been heralded and so written about by clerical family members, including Reverend Thomas Brainerd, and prominent colonial preachers including John Wesley, founder of the Methodist Church, and Jonathan Edwards.
