Histórico
Moses Fifield (1790-1859), American minister, was born in Unity, New Hampshire on December 7, 1790. He taught school for a time. In 1816 he joined the New England Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He married Celia Knight (1786-1874) on March 5, 1820.
Fifield served the following appointments as an itinerant preacher: Sandwich Circuit, 1816; Harwich, 1817; Providence, Rhode Island, 1819; Warehouse Point, 1822; Springfield, 1820; Connecticut Circuit, 1823; Tolland circuit, 1824. By 1824, his health had deteriorated, and he could no longer fulfill his duties. He chose to leave the ministry and the conference granted him an honorable location. After that time, he moved to Centreville, Rhode Island, and engaged primarily in secular business as a banker. He continued to serve the church in a limited capacity until his death on April 19, 1859.
