Richmond Town - St. Andrew's Episcopal Church

In 1975, Pope Paul VI canonized St. Elizabeth Bailey Seton, the first American born saint and founder of the Sisters of Charity. Her grandfather, Rev. Richard Charleton served as our Rector from 1747-1776 and is buried in the churchyard. A relic of St. Seton was given to the parish from the Vatican and a stain-glass window is dedicated in her honor.
