Rev. Francis Dane possibly came to America in 1636 with Rev. Nathaniel Rogers. He was ordained in 1648. Like
other Puritans, he longed to see true faith replace cold nominalism in the Church of England. Unlike the Pilgrim Separatists, the
Puritans believed the Church could be reformed from within. But that no longer proved possible after 1628, when Bishop Laud
presented the King with a list of all the ministers in the land with a letter "O" (Orthodox) or "P" (Puritan) beside each name.
Puritan ministers could no longer serve in the Church of England, and in the next 16 years, 20,000 Puritans seeking to restore
"spiritual Christianity" went to New England in what became known as the Great Migration. In Massachusetts they adopted the
church order of the very Separatists they had once looked down on and became known as Congregationalists.

The second minister of the church in Andover, by 1692 Francis Dane had lived in Andover for 44 years. On October 18, 1692
he and Thomas Barnard wrote a letter to the governor and to the General Court. Signed by 24 others, it was the first public
condemnation of the witch trials. Dane was in danger himself. Half a dozen of his relatives were accused as witches. Even his
pulpit offered no protection: another minister, George Burroughs, had already been hanged. Dane was one of the few pastors
who dared to preach against the witch hunt. He warned that his people were guilty of blood for accepting unfounded
accusations against covenanted members of the church. In the end, none of his family were hanged. Rev. Dane died in 1697.

"May the Lord direct and guide those that are in place, and give us all
submissive wills, and let the Lord do with me and mine what seems good in
his own eyes."
Rev. Francis Dane, 1692
