St. James Episcopal Church
Church
One of the oldest congregations in the Cape Fear region, established 1729. The current building dates to 1839, but the church community spanned the colonial and Revolutionary periods. During Craig's 1781 occupation, the church served British and Loyalist needs; the congregation divided along Patriot and Loyalist lines as the war tore through Wilmington's social fabric.
