Daniel W. Waldron (1840-1918) was born in Augusta, Maine, and died in Boston, Massachusetts. He graduated from Bowdoin College in 1862 and attended Andover Theological Seminary. He married Mary A. Waite, a church organist, in Weymouth, Massachusetts, in 1867. Waldron was a clergyman who served as chaplain of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, as well as superintendent of the City Missionary Society, a social justice agency founded in 1816 by the congregations of Old South Church and Park Street Church to serve the urban poor of Boston. He served as pastor of the South Congregational Church, East Braintree, and also at the Maverick Church, East Boston. Waldron wrote to Mary Baker Eddy in 1886 for copies of her writings. Based on the records available, we have found no further information concerning his involvement with Christian Science.
