Book Description
Excerpt from History of the Manokin Presbyterian Church: Princess Anne, Maryland The Manokin Church of Princess Anne, Maryland, is one of the oldest Presbyterian church organizations of our country. "According to reliable tradition," it shares with the Rehoboth, Snow Hill, Pitts Creek and Wicomico churches the honor of having been organized about 1683 by the Rev. Francis Makemie, the recognized founder of organized Presbyterian ism in America. While we have no special desire to claim for this church priority of organization, yet it is certain that one of the first buildings in America used by a Presbyterian congregation stood on or near the site of the present Manokin Church. As is well known, all these Makemie churches were, at the time of their organization, in what was then Somerset County, on the Eastern Shore of Maryland; and this, surely, is honor enough for any one section of our land. It is no small distinction for Somerset to have been thus prominent in the pioneer work of establishing the great Presbyterian Church in America - the Church which inspired and developed the patriotic manhood that made the Revolutionary War not only possible, but successful. The learned historian Bancroft declares that "the Revolution of 1776, so far as it was affected by religion, was a Presbyterian measure;" and again he says: "The first voice raised in America to destroy all connection with Great Britain came from the Scotch-Irish Presbyterians." In "American Church History," Volume VI, page 69. the statement is made that "the members of the Presbyterian Church bore the brunt of the struggle for independence, from the Hudson to the Savannah." We all recall the famous saying of Sir Horace Walpole before the English Parliament: "Cousin America has run off with a Presbyterian parson;" and that of King James: "Presbytery agreeth as well with monarchy as God and the devil."
