Sources and References
Much of this article comes from the Unitarian Universalist History & Heritage Society (UUHHS) biography of James Freeman written in 2006 by David Miano.

References from the original article:

Material on Freeman can be found in the archives of the Dr. Williams' Library in London; the Houghton Library at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts; the Massachusetts Historical Society in Boston, Massachusetts (including the records of King's Chapel); and in the the Davis Collection at the Henry Ford Museum Library in Dearborn, Michigan (personal letters, 1786-1806). In addition to various individual sermons, monographs, and a book of extracts from English Unitarian authors, Freeman published Sermons on Particular Occasions (1812), without his name on it. It passed through several editions. One version, Eighteen Sermons and a Charge (1829) was a special gift for his congregation. He also co-wrote (with Samuel Cary) Funeral Sermons Preached at King's Chapel, Boston (1820). Freeman was an occasional contributor to the General Repository and Review and the Christian Register. Unfortunately his famous sermons on the Trinity are lost.

Sources for Freeman's life include: Conrad Wright, The Beginnings of Unitarianism in America (1955); Samuel A. Eliot, Heralds of a Liberal Faith, vol. 2 (1910); Carl Scovel and Charles Forman, Journey Toward Independence: King's Chapel's Transition to Unitarianism (1993); Thomas Belsham, American Unitarianism, or a Brief History of the Progress and Present State of Unitarian Churches in America (1815); F.W.P.
