Sloane, James Renwick Wilson, 1823-1886

 
Sloane was born in Vermont and educated in Appalachia, attending Jefferson College in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania (now Washington and Jefferson College in Washington). After teaching in Kentucky and Ohio, he studied for the ministry, becoming pastor of New York’s Third Reformed Presbyterian Church in 1856. He served there until 1868, after which he returned to Appalachia to teach theology at the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania (now Pittsburgh), a post he held until his death in 1886.

Additional information can be found in the “Biographical” section of Life and Work of J. R. W. Sloane, D. D. (New York: A. C. Armstrong and Son, 1888).

    James Renwick Wilson Sloane

    This book was edited by Sloane’s son; he undertook the project at the request of his father’s friends “in the Covenanter church” but hoped that it would “find a wider circulation than among the members of the Reformed Presbyterian denomination” (p.3). The book consists of 4 sections: “Biographical,” “Addresses and a Sermon on Slavery,” “Addresses on National Reform, etc.,” and “Sermons.”
