The first window on the west wall, by the side altar, is in memory of Charles J. Burnett, Sr. (1774-1856), and his grandson, Albert De Cost Burnett (1846-1862) who died at the age of 16 in the Civil War. The Burnetts were one of the church's first families. Charles J. Burnett, Sr., hosted formal Episcopal services in Skaneateles in his home as early as 1803. Mr. Burnett was born in England but came to America through his friendship with Colonel William J. Vredenburgh, and married Col. Vredenburgh's eldest daughter, Maria. Mr. Burnett was one of the first wardens of St. James' church, appointed in 1816 with Jonathan Booth, and he served as warden from 1824 to 1856. His son, Charles J. Burnett Jr., married Eliza De Cost, daughter of Nash De Cost. The window is a geometrical design with images of a lily, grapes, a sheaf of wheat. The wheat and grapes symbolize the bread and wine of communion, the body and blood of Christ, and the lily is a symbol of both purity and the Easter promise. The letter A in this window does not stand for the traditional Alpha, but rather for Albert who lost his life while serving his country.
