MICHAELS EPISCOPA Michael's Episcopal CftQTClr, {" one of the moot famous of the old churches of Charleston, was bujlt in February of 1752. The architebt of the church has been a matter of much discussion, but evidence points to James Gibbs, who designed St. Martin's-in-the-Fields in London. 8t. Michael's is an almost exact cuplicate of that church. The property is considered to be the oldest^ X church land south of Virginia continuously used as a place of worship. The church had never been consecrated, due to the lack of a bishop, until the year 1818. Forthis reason, confirmation services were not held until then. Here was formed one of the first vested boys choirs in the New World. ^ St. Michael'dftas not been used exclusively as wchurch throughout its hisEorv Tn A\o 10An>- - .. i w.j ? *m ??(? voi Ajr lOUV Of IW : wasjused as a poll for general elections, and pubhojiieetincs were held (here .^antil JBHt violent nature caused thenr^o be forbidden An *' 1832.
