Old Narragansett Church

Old Narragansett Church, also known as Old St. Paul's Church and St. Paul's Episcopal Church, is a historic Episcopal church located at 60 Church Lane in Wickford, Rhode Island and is believed to be the oldest Episcopal church building in the Northeastern United States.〔
==History==
The church congregation was founded in 1706 as St. Paul's Church and was established by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts (SPG).〔 The original congregation consisted of 17 landholder families.〔 The Rev. Samuel Fayerweather closed the church in 1774 due to the American Revolutionary War, and in 1780 the SPG withdrew its support for Fayerweather because of his support for the American cause.〔
The church re-formed by the Rev. William Smith in 1787 after a thirteen-year hiatus. In 1799 the congregants voted to move the church to its present location in Wickford.
On April 11, 1756, the infant "son of Gilbert Stewart ye Snuff Grinder" was baptized in the church.〔 The child later changed his name to Gilbert Stuart and grew up to be known as one of America's foremost portraitists.
