History of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, Quincy

St Paul's Episcopal Church in Quincy, Florida

St. Paul’s Church in Quincy, Florida, has a rich history dating back to its organization and election of the vestry on December 7, 1838. The parish was quickly integrated into the Diocese of Florida during the Diocese’s Second Annual Convention in January 1839. Officially incorporated on February 28, 1839, by an act of the Territorial Legislature, the church was originally served by the rector of St. John’s Church in Tallahassee, beginning in 1834. Despite challenges, including periods without a rector and the use of the building as a Confederate Army hospital during the Civil War, St. Paul’s has persevered. This history was written in 1958 in preparation for St. Paul’s 125th anniversary.
