- Summary
- Round Top Lutheran Church, named for the structure's round-topped roof, was established in Dutchess County in about 1746. The locality is now a hamlet called Bethel in the the town of Pine Plains. The church was established after the break up of a Moravian Indian Mission called Shekomeko, which was located on farm land owned by Edward Huntting.
- The church records include births, baptisms, and lists of communicants mainly from 1760 to 1787, but with some additional entries, possibly unrelated to Round Top, recording vital statistics from the early 19th Century. The collection was transcribed in 1921 by Walter Kenneth Griffin. The transcription has been microfilmed and is available in the Milstein Division.
