}}First Presbyterian Church of Elizabeth (Old First of Elizabeth) is a historic church at 14–44 Broad Street in Elizabeth, Union County, New Jersey.[2][3]

It was built in 1783 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977 for its significance in architecture.[4]

The churchyard dates from 1687 and has over two thousand graves, many from the American Revolutionary War, including the Reverend James Caldwell.[4]

In 2013, a Bible dating from 1699 belonging to founder James Odgen was returned to the congregation.[5]
