Episcopal Diocese Of Kentucky
The Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky is a diocese of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America, encompassing the western half of the state of Kentucky. History The first verifiable religious services in Kentucky were held on May 28, 1775, under an elm tree at Boonesboro by Rev. John Lythe. After the American Revolutionary War, in 1795, an Episcopal chaplain offered prayers at the beginning of the new state's first legislative session, and while one diocesan historian (the diocese originally comprised all of Kentucky) estimated that half of all early emigrants were Episcopalian, the church did not follow them for decades. Between 1803 and 1806, Rev. Williams Kavanagh, formerly a Methodist deacon but ordained by Bishop John Claggett of Maryland, held services in a log building at Louisville used by various Protestant faiths, before he moved to Henderson. Instead, revival meetings dominated, but in 1822 some organized themselves into Christ Church, Louisville. Between 1 ...

The city formed around his saw mill and a grist mill a few years later. The village was originally called Stantonville. John Marygold bought the place in 1852 and, according to legend, called it "Chilington," referring to Chillington Hall in England. He sent a verbal message to have the name change recorded in Stockbridge, then the county seat. Because the middle ''ing'' in the name was accidentally omitted, the municipality was recorded as Chilton. An alternative explanation for the name is that it was a reference to one of two villages called Chilton near Oxford, England. Both are located on the edge of the Chiltern Hills, a limestone escarpm ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
