'ANCH|[NT CHURCH EDIFICE
Building at Bunker Hill Which
Was Erected in l742.
INTERESTING BIT or HISTORY
Baltimore Sun Publishes Sketch Of 0ldesi
Episcopal Church 10 This Part
Of the State.
INTERESTING BIT OF HISTORY

The Baltimore Sun recently pub
lished short history Of the ancient
Episcopal church at Bunker Hill,
built ia I742 by Morgan Morgan, John
Briscoe and Jacob Hite, which is an
interesting bit of local history The
sketch was Published in reply to an
Inquiry, and is as follows;
In 1882 Berkeley county, Virginia,
was taken from Frederick county.
Virginia, and about 1867 Berkeley
county, Virginia, became Bers eley
county. West Virginia. The church
building which now stands is built
near the site Of the first church and
is known a. Christ's Protestant Epis.
copal church. 1t is surrounded by a
graveyard. Some OF the dates on
the tombstones are as early as ITO.
Capt. William Henshaw, who was
with Gen. Andrew Lewis in the battle
OF Point Pleasant, w. Va, October
10, l774, was buried in that graveyard
in 1899, and the funeral service and
sermon were delivered by Rev. Alex
ander Belmain, who was chaplain
in the Continental army during the
war of the Revolution, and who after
wards lived in Winchester, Va, about
Is miles from the Bunker Hill church.
THE church is in NorbOrne parish
and Rev. j. s. Douglass, Of the TRIM
Protestant Episcopal church, Mar
tinsburg, holds service there two
Sunday afternoons in each month.
During the Civil war the church was
used by the soldiers as stable.
Il got some of my information
about the church from Rt. Rev. q.
w Peterkin's History of the Church
in West Virginia page 4l2l."
[According to KerchevaPs history
Berkeley county was not organized
until 1772.
