  • From: MISSISSIPPI
    An Informal History Of St. Clement’s Episcopal Church Vaiden, Mississippi 1876 – 1976 by Emily Barksdale Humphrey p. i PREFACE “There be some who have left a name behind them and whose remembrance is sweet. And there be some who have no memorial. But their righteousness has not been forgotten and their glory shall not be blotted out.” Eccl. 44 ONE HUNDRED YEARS IN HIS HOUSE This is a story which for 100 years has stood looking eastward over the green trees of Vaiden, the Big Black River, and the eternal sunrise. It is a house that belongs to the Holy Trinity and to the many dozens of His human children whose feet have crossed its threshold with the past century, bringing their joys, griefs, fears, hopes and frustrations, and laying them down in the quiet peace of His sanctuary. Some places seem to have a memory and living spirit. We do well to keep such places holy and to seek what they have to tell us. Inescapably it is also the story of an era that has passed and of another era beginning. It is in part the story of Vaiden and of those sturdy old homes in winter with crackling fires and comfortable chairs, broad porches in summer and picket fences, winding walks and armies of squirrels and robins. It is all part of that 100 years of history which is the heritage of the Church of St. Clement’s. In order that it may not be lost it must be written down. Emily Barksdale Humphrey has happily recorded many interesting facts about our church as only one can do who has deep affection, and as one who attended the church as a child and was there baptized and confirmed.

A circle of his followers watched him as he spread the small roll of sheepskin before him, then tied the parchment with a purple thread, sealed it with his gem- studded seal and handed it to a waiting messenger, who mounted his camel and was away, across the desert, into the deepening dark. The scene shifts; the centuries pass. The Saxon abbot is alone in his meager library, and he scans once more the sheepskin on which the brilliant colors shine. They spell out in gold, ruby, sapphire blue, a secret message of great importance, that the student monks have written and illuminated with all care and laid before him. He forms it all into a booklet and ties it with a purple figment of silk that matches his robe. Then he reaches for his lead seal and presses the beeswax into the knot, so that the image of the mitre and the cross is plain to see. The document is ready for the fleet-footed messenger.

The dissertation employs three major research methodologies by: (1) centralizing the role of social class in the Episcopal Church's history, (2) seriously considering the Episcopal Church's distinctive theology, and (3) quantifying the connections that linked the Episcopal Church to the South's economic structures prior to the Civil War. Archival research, periodicals, and published records related to the Protestant Episcopal Church provided the primary evidence used in the formulation of the dissertation's interpretations and conclusions.

  • THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH in NORTH CAROLINA 1587-2015 Historical Overview the Rev
    THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH IN NORTH CAROLINA 1587-2015 Historical Overview The Rev. Dr. N. Brooks Graebner Historiographer, Diocese of North Carolina The story of the Episcopal Church in North Carolina can be traced back to the very first English efforts at colonization during the reign of Elizabeth I. In August 1587, at what is now called “the Lost Colony” on Roanoke Island, the Native American Manteo and the English infant Virginia Dare were baptized. Permanent English settlement did not occur until the mid-17th century, however, and it wasn’t until 1701 that the colonial assembly passed its first Vestry Act, thereby making the Church of England the officially sanctioned faith in North Carolina. This act provided for the creation of precincts – or parishes – administered by local vestries, and the precincts of Chowan, Pasquotank, Perquimans, and Currituck along Albemarle Sound and Pamlico precinct in Bath County date to this time. Principally through levying taxes and fines, colonial vestries in each parish were called upon to make provision for church buildings and ministers, oversee the parish poor, and serve other delegated political functions.1 Thus, the Church of England enjoyed a privileged status and legal advantages not enjoyed by other religious groups in 18th century North Carolina. But these legal provisions by no means guaranteed a strong and vibrant Church, and the history of Colonial Anglicanism in North Carolina is largely a study in frustration. From the outset, many inhabitants were at best indifferent—and often opposed—to the establishment of the Church of England. Already in the late 17th century, the region around Albemarle Sound had become a haven for Quakers, who launched a campaign to have the vestry act repealed.2 And in 1 Robert J.
