John Callender Jr. (1706–1748) was an American clergyman and author. He was best known as the pastor of the First Baptist Church in Newport, Rhode Island and as the author of ''An Historical Discourse on the Civil and Religious Affairs of the Colony of Rhode-Island'', an early and important historical account of Rhode Island. ==Early life== The Reverend John Callender Jr. was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1706. His father was John Callender, Esq., who was the son of the pastor of First Baptist Church in Boston, Reverend Ellis Callender. Ellis Callender's son, Elisha Callender, John's uncle, succeeded him as pastor of First Baptist Church in Boston. At Elisha Callender's ordination on May 21, 1718 Cotton Mather preached a sermon entitled "Good Men United."〔Romeo Elton, "Memoir of Reverend John Callender," pages 9-44 in ''An Historical Discourse on the Civil and Religious Affair of the Colony of Rhode-Island,'' page 10.〕 As for the early life of John Callender himself, we have little information. He attended Harvard College beginning at the age of thirteen. John Leverett the Younger was the president of Harvard during John's tenure there as a student. John graduated from Harvard in 1723 and was baptized at First Baptist Church in Boston during that same year.〔Elton, "Memoir," 11.〕
