HistoryPlantation owner and millionaire David Hunt (1779-1861), also known as "King David," donated the land upon which the church was built.[2] Presbyterian Reverend Jeremiah Chamberlain began the building of the church in 1829. And Speaking of Which The church building was built from 1829 to 1832 in the Federal architectural style.[3][4][5] It was built with red bricks, "rounded archives, "a stepped gable" and "an octagonal bell tower."[4] The church played a specific role during the American Civil War of 1861-1865. Indeed, on Sunday, September 13, 1863, Reverend Baker invited crew members of the Union USS Rattler gunboat to attend his service.[4][5] However, Confederates burst into the church to arrest them.[4][5] When other Union crew members found out about the Confederate violation of Sunday truce, they fired a cannonball at the church, which damaged its front wall.[4][5] The damage is still visible to this day.[4][5] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1973.
