He was inducted in October and on the occasion, by deed of Synod , the first Presbytery of Prince Edward Island was constituted, on October 11, 1821. Rev. Douglas was the clerk of this first Presbytery ( Dr. John Keir being the first Moderator). He served the congregation until his death on September 17, 1846. His wife Hannah Blanchard Douglas moved with her children to Charlottetown following his death. It was Mrs Douglas who is credited with the drive to create what became Queen Square Church. On March 3, 1846, one daughter, Sarah Waddele married William Mutch , senior Elder of Queen Square Church. On Nov 11, 1865, another daughter Susan Cutles , married Rev.
