Henry Dunster was a New England Puritan clergyman who served as the first president of Harvard College from 1640 to 1654. Brackney says Dunster was "an important precursor" of the Baptist denomination in America, especially regarding infant baptism, soul freedom, religious liberty, congregational governance, and a radical biblicism.
