Durham Parish

Durham Parish was one of the original thirty parishes established by an act of the General Assembly of Maryland on June 2, 1692. A log church was first erected on this site, as reported by the vestry to the Governor in 1694. The existing church was constructed in 1732-34, its walls were raised to provide galleries, and major repairs were completed in 1793. It stands as a witness to the debt of the church to the wisdom and fidelity of those whose work, done in the past, lives today.
