Interesting Historical Facts**Saint James' Church has a rich heritage, dating from its first worship service in 1700. Since then, the parish has seen many changes in the surrounding countryside, and grown along with the Perkiomen area's progress from arural to a suburban economy. Throughout its three-hundred-year history, Saint James has been committed to faithful worship, Christian education, outreach, andservice.**Many of Saint James' historical records are currently housed in theEvansburg Free Library, which is open to the public, on Monday and Thursday evenings. Our list of Interesting Historical Facts about the parish, offers a brief overview of the more extensive information, which can be found in the library.**The Colonial Church *Edward Lane, the actual founder of Saint James, acquired his extensive lands along the Perkiomen and Skippack creeks before 1700, after emigrating from Bristol, in the west of England. Other Church of England families from Bristol, and nearby W ales, came to settle on his land, in the late 1600's and early 1700's. They built a log church on land presumably donated by Mr. Lane, soon after 1700. This first Saint James' Church burned a few years later, in a fire that destroyed all of the church's records of the day.LessModified
