Andrews (1801-1887) was a native of South Carolina who arrived in Alabama in 1832, and within only a few short years constituted the North River Association of Churches he established in the Tuscaloosa area. His Arminian views came into conflict with the prevailing Calvinism, causing splits in several congregations. In 1843, Andrews compiled The Pilgrim's Choice, wich contains 150 hymns, eight doxologies, and 118 spiritual songs, and indicates times for each. At least four of the texts are by Andrews." - Music & Richardson, "I Will Sing the Wondrous Story", p. 192-193.With a signed provenance card from the collection of A. Merril Smoak, Jr., DWS.
