Hi guys...this is my first contribution here. Sorry for the poor image quality, but these were taken with a crappy film camera. I hope to be able to get some digitals taken soon.

Some. The current ruins were originally "Prince Fredericks Chapel". The parish itself was founded in the 1700's, but was built on and razed several times. The current structure went up around 1860, reportedly designed by a man named Elijah Gunn.

Most of the stories about the place agree that he fell from the tower and was killed, but not all agree on when this happened. Some say he died before it was finished, hence the ruined state, but it seems more probable that it was at least very near completion, if not finished, when he died. The wooden back portion is burned out, but I don't know why. Could have been a casualty of the civil war. The place is surrounded by quite a few overgrown plantations.
