Since 1665, Saint Paul's Church played a vital role in the colonial life of Eastchester, 20 miles north of New York City. Townspeople voted at the nearby Village Green, and local militia drilled outside its doors. During the American Revolution, American, British, and Hessian troops tore down the old wooden meetinghouse for firewood and used the unfinished stone chapel as a hospital.
