After moving to Massachusetts, Gould became a successful farmer and wagon maker. Due to disagreements with Massachusetts' state Congregationalist (Puritan) church, Gould absented himself from Sabbath meetings. In 1655 he refused to allow his child to be baptized by the Congregationalist church in Charlestown, Massachusetts, where he was living and starting meeting with Henry Dunster, another anti-pedobaptist who was the first president of Harvard College. Another disagreement took place in the Cambridge church, and anti-pedobaptists began meeting in Gould's home. In 1665 Gould drew up a statement of faith for a Baptist congregation, which began meeting in secret on Noddle's Island in Boston harbor. The congregation was mainly Calvinist Calvinism (also called the Reformed Tradition, Reformed Protestantism, ...

Thomas Ridgeway Gould
Thomas Ridgeway Gould (November 5, 1818 – November 26, 1881) was an American neoclassical sculptor active in Boston and Florence. Biography Gould was born in Boston on November 5, 1818. He was at first a merchant with his brother in the dry-goods business, but studied sculpture under Seth Wells Cheney starting in 1851 and in 1863 exhibited two large heads of Christ and Satan at the Boston Athenæum. As a result of the American Civil War, he lost his moderate fortune, and in 1868 moved with his family to Florence, Italy, where he devoted himself to study and work.

Animated newspaper correspondence followed this charge, and it was proved groundless. Gould declared that his designs were entirely his own, and that not a statue, bust, or medallion was allowed to leave his studio ...
