William Pascoe Crook was the first Congregationalist minister in Australia. He was born in England and sailed to the South Pacific on the London Missionary Society's ship Duff in 1796. He spent several years working in the Marquesas Islands, then returned to England where he married Hannah Dare. They arrived in Sydney in 1803, and Samuel Marsden engaged him to open the colony's first boarding school in Parramatta.
