a Methodist Episcopal minister, was born at Randolph, Vt., May 13, 1811. He was converted in 1832; received license to preach in 1840; moved to Shiawasse County, Mich., in 1848, and in the same year entered the Michigan Conference. On account of ill-health he held a superannuated relation during 1857 and 1858. During the other years of his ministry he labored willingly and faithfully. He died April 13, 1866. Mr. Belknap excelled as a pastor. His preaching was direct, earnest, and full of pathos. See Minutes of Annual Conferences, 1866, p. 157.
