Saint Peter's Episcopal Church

Pioneer Episcopalians worshiped at the Kerr County Courthouse in 1881. In 1884-88, they erected a small frame Gothic church. The Rev. J. E. Hole served 1890-91 as first resident Rector; the Rev. Richard Galbraith, 1894-1908, as first permanent Rector. In 1908 Saint Peter's became a Parish. The Rev. J. E. Ellis, 1908-13 Rector, founded a Boy Scout troop here, before Scouting had originated nationally. The present church was built in 1928. Annexes were added later. The greatly enlarged membership includes descendants of early communicants.
