- William Salter (minister)
William Salter (1821-1910) was an American Congregational minister, public orator, social activist and historian. Graduating from Andover in 1843, he travelled west to Iowa, a member of the so-called "Iowa Band", becoming one of the first ministers to preach in what was at the time only a territory. He became the second pastor of First Congregational Church in Burlington, Iowa, in 1846 and remained senior minister of this congregation for over 60 years until his death in 1910.
