The development of colonial society and the road to the American Revolution
St. Paul’s Church N.H.S. consist of an 18th century stone church that was used by both sides as a hospital during the American Revolution, an adjoining five-acre cemetery that is among America’s oldest, continuously used burial yards, and a museum with exhibitions about local and national history. Located at the center of the colonial town of Eastchester, the site was the scene of the landmark 1733 election, which raised in unprecedented and historically significant ways issues of Freedom or Religion and of the the Press.
