I washed the car before winter set in, and I liked the paths that the water made on the driveway.
St. Paul’s Parish dates to 1692 when it was one of thirty parishes erected by the act establishing the Church of England as the state religion of the colony of Maryland. A frame church was constructed at the present site in 1696 but was soon rendered insufficient as the vestry contracted James Harris to construct a replacement in brick fifteen years later. In 1711, construction commenced on the present building, one of the first Georgian churches built in Maryland. The new St. Paul’s followed a similar plan to Old Trinity located further south on the Eastern Shore in Dorchester County, a rectangular nave to which a semi-circular apse was affixed to house the communion table. The revolutionary change between the two structures was the use of compass head windows and doors at St. Paul’s, unlike the small, square windows of leaded glass used in the Jacobean-styled Old Trinity. St. Paul’s was completed in 1713 at a cost of 70,000 pounds of tobacco. In 1766, a brick vestry house was constructed a few dozen yards from the west end of the church. This survives today as one only two eighteenth century vestry houses left in Maryland.
St. Paul’s weathered the tumultuous disestablishment of the Church of England in the colonies during the Revolution due to the staunch patriotism of its rector, Rev. Dr. William Smith. Rev. Smith was also instrumental in the reorganization of the Anglican Churches of the colonies into the Protestant Episcopal Church (now the Episcopal Church in the United States). However, the congregation waned in the early-nineteenth century as the influence of Methodists and Baptists increased in the state. A revival in the late-1840s saw a renovation of the historic church with the addition of new slip pews (replacing earlier box pews) and the realignment of the interior to face the apse where a chancel was erected. At this time, the original south door was bricked over, a change still evidenced in the exterior wall today. Following the renovations of 1841, St. Paul’s was consecrated on November 26, 1843 by the Right Reverend William Rollinson Whittingham, fourth Bishop of Maryland.
A few additions have been made to St. Paul’s since the mid-19th century, including a vesting room and a pipe organ. Stained glass windows have also been added in the apse and to the south of the chancel. The triptych inserted over the altar was installed in 1864 and features symbolism meant to unify a deeply-divided congregation during the American Civil War. In the gallery, early wooden benches survive, likely used by freed and enslaved African Americans in the Ante Bellum period of the parish’s history.
The Rev. Sewell S. Hepburn is recalled as a prolific pastor on the Eastern Shore who served at St. Paul’s from 1874 until 1881. His granddaughter was the actress Katherine Hepburn.
The large churchyard that surrounds St. Paul's Church contains graves dating back to the second quarter of the eighteenth century. One of the earliest is the stone of Daniel Coley, dated October 20, 1729.
