Add PhotosIn June 1827, Dr. Ezra Styles Eli purchased a pair of lots on Second Street, below Christian, and leased them to the Second Presbyterian Church in Southwark and its 27 members. In July, 1829, Dr. Ely paid $2,575 towards the erection of a church on the lots. A small burial ground was established on the site at the same time.
The church did not last long, and following the appointment of Reverend William Ramsey in 1830, the church was dropped from the rolls of the Presbytery. The church lot was sold in 1836. No trace of the church or burial ground remain.
