Bpring, founded in 1714- The records phow that on April 7, 1850, a memor- 1 . Aal was addressed to the Presbytery of^West Jersey, signed by 31 rt-si. j j Jlents of Cape May (then called j f Cape Island), asking the Presbytery 1 1 to organize them intp a Church, de- ' t

daring such an organization was j tieedful to the interest of thAir'fam- ! JUetv and religion- - — — 7— - . After some delay the prayer of the | petitioners was granted, and the new Church formally organized. It is of! Ijistorical and genealogical interest] to note the names of the fTfst-jnertw- 1 fcers, all of whom presented letters from the Cold Spring Church. Mrs. Elisabeth Pierson, Mrs. Mary P. JJughes, Mary Mecray, Mrs. Hughes, Wiljigm Stites and wife, JIrs- Sarah/ . Richardson, Lemuel Swain, Sr., and wife, Aaron Schellinger and wife, William Schellinget •nd wife„ Mrs. Judith Hughes, Miws. Julia Swain, Miss Maria Swain, Miss Jlebecca Merritt, Benjamin Bella'ngy and wife. Aaron ScheJIinger, Sr. ami Lemuel . fikvain, Sr., were elected and install- , ad Rulihg Elders. At the first meeting of the congregation, May 28, 185.1, the follow- - jng Trustees were elected: William < - Benjamin Bellangy, James Mecray, Sr., James Kennedy, M. D., and Joseph Church. The -proposition to build a suitable . church -building followed immediate. Jy. Philip Hand being appointed ! Master Builder. The new building , <now the ''Church of the Advent) was ' completed in June, 1853, at a. cost of $10,500 for lot, building and furni- 1 tore. At the dedication- on June 17, ' the Rev. John Leyburn, p.D., preached the Sermon, assisted in the service by the Rev. Allen H. -Brown, H. < J, Vandyke and many others. In 1900 the buildifig began to be ' used as a -place of worship of the _ Episcopal church, the Presbyterians i " having built a larger edifice. The renovatibhs artd decorations , of' , the past tfao years have brought .to c view the beauty and the basilica- c like impressiveness of the interior. - Those who have travelled widely find } in the consistency and taste of the in- j terior a satisfaction which is rare in v modern village churches in our com).' ' d - It is of farther historical^and genfc- 0 logical interest* that many of " . the a founders of the parent Church at j Cold Spring were descended from the p pilgrim, John Howland, who came to n . jPlymouth in the "Mayflower in 1620. ,j
