The First Parish Church is a historic Unitarian Universalist (formerly Congregationalist) church at Tremont and Depot Streets in Duxbury, Massachusetts. First Parish Church is currently a member congregation of the Unitarian Universalist Association. ==History== The original Duxbury congregation was founded in 1632 by Elder William Brewster as a Christian Separatist church with early members coming from the First Parish Church in Plymouth, the oldest church in New England.〔Justin Winsor, A History of the Town of Duxbury, Massachusetts (BiblioBazaar, LLC, 2009) http://books.google.com/books?id=WxdiOwQYgFEC&source=gbs_navlinks_s ISBN 1-115-77571-5, ISBN 978-1-115-77571-7〕 In the beginning, the church likely met in congregants' homes until the first meeting house was built near what is today known as Miles Standish Burial Ground.〔Gershom Bradford, History of the First Parish Church of Duxbury, Massachusetts (Womans Alliance, 1953) http://books.google.com/books?id=b4SsHAAACAAJ&source=gbs_navlinks_s〕 The Duxbury congregation became a parish church of Massachusetts' Congregationalist state church. A schism developed at the turn of the 19th century, when much of the congregation adopted Unitarianism along with many of the other state churches in Massachusetts.〔Paul Erasmus Lauer, ''Church and state in New England'' (Johns Hopkins Press, 1892)pg. 105-107 () (accessed September 20, 2009)〕 State churches were officially disaffiliated with the Massachusetts government in 1834. The current church building was constructed in 1840. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.〔
