St. Paul's Episcopal parish was organized in 1878. The first officers were Reverend J. Evans Ryam, Rector; and Dr. Monell, J. C. Welch, F. P. Wormley, J. T. Brink and H. Ogden, Vestrymen.

In 1878, they built a neat frame church which cost about $2,000.00. At present this church is not in existence, and the members are worshiping with the Shenandoah Church.
