within the Detroit Conference - In 1839 the Mich. Annual Conference under the
leadership of the strongly pro-southern Bishop Joshua Soule refused to ordain
Samuel Bibbins or Marcus Swift due to their strong abolitionist views. They thus
left the Conf and formed a branch of the American Wesleyan Church (which was
known to be very active in the Underground Railway) out of his cabinet shop in
Plymouth. Samuel brought nearly half of the membership of his Northville church
with him. In 1867 Samuel and Elisha Bibbins and 5 other ministers rejoined the
Conf in an emotional ceremony.
