Notes
  • Significance: The oldest Presbyterian church building in North Carolina in which services have continuously held. Site is one of the most historic plots of ground in North Carolina. Present brick church stands on or nearly on the site of a pre-Revolutionary Church of England structure used to house historic Third Provincial Congresses (1775), three General Assemblies (1178,1782,1783), and the momentous Cosntitutional Convention (1788), and Science Hall (the school in which William Hopper was interested). Cemetery filled with tombs of some of North Carolina's most illustrious dead: Archibald Murphy, Gov. Wm A. Graham, William Hooper, James Hogg, Chief Justice Frederick Nash, etc.
