JAMES* CHURCH Goose Creek, Berkeley County, South Carolina Owner: Episcopal Church Date of erection; Present condition* Good Description? Masonry plastered and painted buff pinkj one high story be- low a jerkinhead roof. The plan is a simple rectangle with no projections. Although the west is the principal liturgical elevation, the two sides are more important architecturally as they are five bays, in contrast to the three of the west eleva- tion. The west doorway has stucco and stone enrichments in the form of Doric pilasters and a frieze enriched with pseudo- triglyphs with flaming hearts in the metopes.

Above is a pedi- ment containing in the tympanum a pelican and her young. The eight-panel double doors are now covered with metal sheathing. flanking the doorway are serai-circular arched-head windows ten lights high, four lights wide. These are framed by plaster ar- chitraves with cherub heads in place of keystones. The corners of the building have rusticated stucco quoins. The windows of the side elevations are identical, but the central doors are smaller and lack the modillioned enrichments; the pediments are segmental. The east end has three arched windows, the center being enlarged over the others. The interior contains much detail of interest, including a plastered and raarbleized reredos with coupled composite pilas- ters and broken serpentine pediment containing royal arms.

On the window sill is lettered "the invitation," indicating that this was originally the retable of the altar. The present pulpit is a later inclusion. It seems probable that the wood nave arcades are subsequent to the original building and were introduced to stabilize the roof. The west gallery is eight- eenth-century and has placed against it a fine hatchment of Ralph Isard. Additional data; The parish is the oldest Episcopal parish, outside of Charleston, in South Carolina and was established by the Church Act of The present building seems to have bees built be- m tween and during the rectorate of the Reverend Fran- cis le Jau, a missionary of the Society for the Propaga- tion of the Gospel in Foreign Parts* HABS No.

Eastern Facade: At the same time the east gable had a cornice restored^ missing from the time of the earthquake. C. Exterior Generally: The exterior was painted a light red with white enrichments. PART IV. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE BUILDING, FROM OBSERVATION A. Exterior 1. Over-all dimensions: About 40' x one story; facing y/est. 2. Foundations: The lower portion of the walls, about 3!? projects somewhat, with a water table. 3. Wall construction: Walls are about 19" thicfe, of soft brick, stuccoed on the exterior and plastered on the Interior. 4. Wall composition: The north and south sides are similar, having central entrance doors and two arched windows on either side. The west front has a central entrance and one window on each side.

The east end has three windows, the central one larger than the others. Quoins enhance the corners. 5. Openings: a. Doorways: The main door in the western facade is framed by pilasters with entasis, carrying an entablature and pediment, in the Roman Doric style. The frieae and bed molds of the cornice break out over the pilasters; there is a single triglyph over each pilaster. In the frieze between are five flam- ing hearts. The crowning cymatium of the pediment extends across the face of the building to the side cornices. In the tympanum is a pelican-in-piety, a symbol both of the maternal love of the Church and of the Eucharist. The door has two leaves, five panels in each.

The north and south doorways are similar to each other., having modified Roman Doric pilasters, sim- plified entablatures and segmental pediments. Each door has two panels with bolection moldings. b. Windows: Openings are semicircular-arched and trimmed on the exterior with a stucco architrave, SMW PROXEarAHr KPISCOPAL CHURCH (former Parish of Saint James) HAB3 No. (Page 4) without impost. At the crown of each is a cherub in relief. Sash are double hung, 12 lights over 12 lights, with a stilted fanlight above. There are simple paneled shutters, covered on the out- side with tin. 6. Roof; The roof form is that of a hipped gable> covered with slate. There is a small stucco cornice. B. Interior 1. Plan; The building is rectangular, divided by colonnades into three aisles.

There is a gallery at the west end, over an open narthex, reached by means of a small stair in the northeast corner. A pulpit is centered at the east end. (Note; the colonnades and gallery are original features). 2. Nave colonnades. Each consists of three bays. Columns are of solid pine, round and tapered; capitals consist simply of an abacus. Those at the ends are half-columns. Over each bay is a wooden pseudo arch of segmental out- line with Iceyblock. These pseudo arcades carry a blind clerestory about 4'~6fI in height, behind which is a (concealed) lattice truss over each colonnade. A verti- cal block over each column extends through the height of the clerestory. 3.

Gallery; The wooden gallery rests on four Ionic columns and two Ionic pilasters, v/ith a rather wide entablature, above which is paneling in the form of a classical attic. 4* Reredos: The reredos is most notable for its monumental scale, unusual for its time in the United States. Fram- ing the chancel window are the halves of a Baroque tabernacle in lihe Composite order. The halves consist of coupled pilasters standing on a low pedestal course, carrying the halves of a broken swansnecfc pediment. Above the window, in the round, are the arms of George I the only known example of such insignia surviving in an American Colonial church from Pre-Revolutlonary times. At the key-point of the window's archivolt is a Bible supported by two cherubim.

On the archivolt and below the window sill are texts in raised letters. The monumental effect of these decorations was impaired by tablets containing the Creed, Lord's Prayer and Commandments, placed over the pilasters in The . decorations are stucco, except for florets in the cor- nice between modillions, which are of metal. The de- tails of the reredos are colored and marbleiKed, SAINT UmS' EttOrSSTANI EPISCOPAL CHURCH (Former Parish of Saint James) HABS No. (Page 5) '}. Pulpit; The reading desk and pulpit comprises an elevated feature, reached by a curving stair; a hexagonal sounding board is suspended above. Its style and structure (cypress painted to imitate nahogany) indicate the last decade of the century as a probable date. 6.

Ceiling: The plaster ceiling is flat, the portion over the nave being higher than that over the side aisles. There is no cornice. 7. Pews; There are four rows of paneled box pews. 8. Flooring; The floor is covered with flagging. (Wooden floors evidently placed in the pews about IS44 decayed and became termite-infested, and were removed in 9. Vestry: A vestry room under the stair which leads to the gallery was probably enclosed in PART V. .

Historical Note

This church represents the earliest Anglican congregation (not parish) outside Charleston, in this colony. The present building replaced an earlier one of record. According to the correspondence of the Reverend Dr. Francis Le Jau, rector of the Parish when the church was begun, it was in building by It was completed in PART VI.

St. James Protestant Episcopal Church in Goose Creek, South Carolina was constructed between and and has withstood wars, hurricanes, and earthquakes. It is a significant structure due to its architecture, the site it sits on, and its association with important religious and historical patterns and people. The St. James church property is associated with important, broad patterns of religious history within the United States. St. James was established as a direct response to the General Assembly Act which dictated that the Church of England be the dominant religion, sparking the Parish system that remains today. The building represents the spread of Anglicanism from England to the colonies, due to connections with the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. St.

James Church, though primarily a place of worship, was also an important site of political power and social gatherings. Features, such as the Gibbes plaque and the hatchment, speak to patterns of migration from, and continued ties to, England. The gallery offers a physical reminder of the social convention of assigning different spaces to people of different races, and to the system of enslavement. The architectural expression of the church demonstrates the wealth of the settlement, achieved through agricultural cultivation (primarily of rice) and the enslavement of thousands of individuals. The church is also associated with significant historical figures, most notably the first minister of St. James Goose Creek, Dr. Francis LeJau.

A French Huguenot who left France during a Huguenot persecution, LeJau eventually moved to South Carolina where he became a missionary for the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. He kept detailed records of his time in South Carolina that provide important information about the church s founding and, because he was an enslaver, important details about the history of slavery in the Lowcountry. LeJau sought to spread Anglicanism, including by baptizing and offering communion to enslaved people practices that had no intention of changing the institution of slavery. The work of enslaved craftspeople made the building possible, and these individuals are significant, though their names are not documented.

Other significant figures associated with the church include Leila Norton Honour, an accomplished artist of the late- nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, responsible for the replacement of ST. JAMES PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH HABS No. (Page 9) the original pelican sculpture over the entry door, and Albert Simons, a high- profile preservationist who undertook work on the building in the twentieth century. St. James demonstrates a high degree of architectural craftsmanship. Though the church has gone through many phases, its overall architectural and artistic characteristics survive, from the jerkinhead roof to the elaborate plasterwork on both the interior and exterior. With its distinctive and artistic ornamentation, St.

James is a prime example of a Georgian-style church in the region. Because the Goose Creek area was originally inhabited by Native Americans, the site may provide additional archaeological information about previous residents and land use. An area beyond the church s perimeter wall, land owned by the vestry, may contain an early African American burial ground important for future investigation. Description: Located on a 4.07-acre site off Snake Road in Goose Creek, South Carolina, the St. James Protestant Episcopal Church sits on raised land surrounded by a low twentieth-century brick wall. The church is a Georgian-style, one-story, masonry structure with a slate-covered jerkinhead roof.

The exterior walls are set on a continuous brick foundation with a brick footing beneath, arranged in a rectangular plan that measures approximately 50 long by 45 wide. Arched windows on all four sides of the church are protected by exterior wooden shutters and framed by plaster architraves adorned with cherub s heads. All windows are twelve-over-twelve, double-hung sash with a transom fanlight window above. The corners of each side of the building are marked by large quoins with a compact stucco cornice. A raised water table runs below the windows on all sides. The east and west facades are three-bays wide. The primary entrance is centered on the west facade and is flanked by two arched windows. The entrance includes paneled double doors and is slightly raised on a stone step.

There is a door surround which features Roman Doric pilasters, an ornamented architrave featuring five heart details, and a pediment that includes a pelican also of plaster. The east facade features three arched windows with the center window larger than the two that flank it. Like the other windows on the structure, these feature a cherub head at the top of each arch. The north and south facades are similar in that they are five-bays wide, each side containing a center entrance and two arched windows on either side. The side doorways sit atop slightly raised stone steps; they feature segmented pediments with modified Roman Doric pilasters and simplified entablatures. The doors on both sides are paneled similarly to the west facade.

The church interior has an open floor plan with a gallery above the west entrance and a prominent altar and reredos on the east end of the structure. The gallery, supported by six Roman Ionic columns, can be accessed by a set of stairs just to ST. JAMES PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH HABS No. (Page 10) the left of the west entrance. There are paneled pew boxes with two aisles extending from the main entrance to the reredos. Six Doric columns carrying a beam above, span from the east to the west exterior walls. This colonnade divides the church into a center nave volume and two side aisles with lower ceiling heights.

The reredos features ornate detailing, including four Greek Composite pilasters, gilded religious inscriptions surrounding the arched window, a plaster Coat of Arms (the Gibbes Plaque) surrounded by a decorative pediment, and a pulpit with a spiral staircase and a hanging sounding board. The interior floors of the church are paved with stone tiles, excepting the reredos, which is raised and features black granite tiles, and the wood gallery floor. History: Originally home to the Etiwan and Sewee Native Americans, among other tribes, Goose Creek was first colonized by the English in the late seventeenth century. St. James Church is one of the most impressive buildings to survive from this early settlement period.

In the General Assembly in England passed the Church Act, making the Church of England the dominant religion in South Carolina and establishing the Parish of St. James Goose Creek. Funds to build the original structure as well as to provide for a minister, came from The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, established by King William III in The Society used members annual subscriptions as well as some special collections to support the over three hundred Anglican clergy and schoolmasters it sent to the colonies, first in an unsuccessful attempt to convert Native Americans and African slaves, then to nurture the spiritual welfare of white Anglican settlers. The original wood framed church was erected on the site in Dr.

Francis LeJau, sent by The Society, administered to parishioners there from its founding until about Although there is some debate as to whether construction of the current building began in or there is evidence that by the congregation consisted of seventy white and eight Black parishioners. The group had outgrown the little frame structure, prompting the parish to construct the brick church which stands today, as well as a parsonage that is no longer extant. Dr. LeJau ministered not only to his own parishioners in Goose Creek, but also once a month to Charlestown and other settlements in the area through his leadership role within the Anglican Parish hierarchy. LeJau contributed to historical knowledge through recordkeeping and a daily diary.

His primary accounts of various aspects of society in Goose Creek during the first decades of the eighteenth century continue to be utilized by scholars today. Upon his death in following a protracted illness, Dr. LeJau was buried in front of the chancel with a marble slab set into the floor to mark his resting place, although construction of the Georgian structure seen today was not completed until Following the American Revolution, Anglicanism fell out of favor among Americans since it was the official religion of England. This, coupled with the fact that the planters and their families moved to Charleston or left the area ST. JAMES PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH HABS No.

(Page 11) seasonally during the summer months to escape the weather, mosquitoes, and other troubles that plagued them in Goose Creek, meant that when the last settled minister left the parish in no one was sent to replace him. Instead, services were only held at St. James for six months out of the year. The earliest known depictions of the brick church are watercolor paintings created by Charles Fraser in They show the church similar to its existing form; the most notable difference being the exposed brick exterior walls and the clipped gambrel roof. The plaster pelican atop the door surround, visible today but known to be a reconstruction, is present in the image.

The pelican, a symbol for The Society of the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts, references the church s founding organization. By the church had fallen into ruin. In November of that year, Mr. John Lucas was hired to undertake a restoration campaign. The work, completed in April and totaling was funded by the congregation of St. Michael s Church in Charleston. The church was finally consecrated after this first major restoration. The church had not previously been consecrated due to the fact that there was no Bishop in South Carolina at the time of its original construction. Photos from around show the post-restoration church, featuring the stucco exterior finish and jerkinhead roof present today.

At the end of the Civil War, Goose Creek s economy, like much of the South, was devastated. As white congregants left Goose Creek, many to move to Charleston, the church held once yearly services on Easter, and later on Low Sunday (the week following Easter). In the church was restored a second time. Chairman of the vestry, Francis S. Holmes led the campaign. Although there are fewer details about this restoration, carpenters were called in to make repairs and when they completed their work the church reopened for regular services on January 2, On August 31, a 7.3-magnitude earthquake hit the region. This was the largest recorded earthquake to strike the southeastern United States and resulted in the failure of many masonry structures.

The church, like much of the Lowcountry, was badly damaged and once again in need of repairs. Numerous images document the extent of the damage showing that while the western wall below the gallery was intact and most of the church interior survived; portions of the upper western wall had collapsed revealing a roof that appears to have been clad in wood shingles. Joseph I. Waring described the extensive damage to the church, including the collapsing of the east and west gables, the cracking of the walls, the damage to the Pelican sculpture above the door, and the tablets and Coat of Arms (Gibbes Plaque) within the reredos. The vestry raised money for the repairs that used as much original material as feasible, including incorporating broken pieces of stucco ornament into restored elements.

ST. JAMES PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH HABS No. (Page 12) A description of the church by Joseph Waring notes the reintroduction of The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel Pelican two years prior, replacing the one destroyed earlier in the earthquake. Leila Norton Honour of Charleston designed and executed the replacement. The sculptor, and wife of Lee Honour, was an accomplished and well-known artist of the late-nineteenth and early- twentieth centuries who worked in cities throughout the country. Waring s description also stated that the repairs done to the church were thorough and included the addition of a slate roof for fire resistance. This is the first mention of a slate roof, suggesting that this prominent feature was added between and The next known alteration to the St.

James Protestant Episcopal Church site was the installation of a brick wall enclosing the churchyard. Funded by the National Society for Colonial Dames of South Carolina, the wall was intended to act as a fire break. Photos taken in by the Historic American Building Survey show the church in good condition. Repairs were undertaken in and again to reinforce the building s foundations. Although there is no conclusive evidence, it is believed that the restoration may have included the use of Portland cement that was later deemed responsible for introducing rising damp issues in the masonry walls. In the late and early the Bishop of the Episcopal Church in South Carolina attempted to seize the church and sell it off to finance other efforts.

To prevent this, the vestry successfully sued the Episcopal Church to retain the ability to oversee their own affairs (though St. James remained a part of the Diocese and continued to abide by canonical law). Following the lawsuit, the vestry launched another restoration campaign focusing on the building exterior and repairs to the slate roof. To finance this repair, the vestry sold portions of the land around the church. In exchange for permission to do so, St. James ceded a portion of land to the Diocese. Beginning in March St. James vestry undertook restoration of the church using funds from the sale of a portion of the larger tract. The vestry hired N.I. Ball & Son to repair the slate roof and replace and tighten missing or loose slates.

In Charleston Constructors, Inc., repaired the exterior stucco, windowsills, moldings, tin cladding on the window jambs, and rotting interior plaster and woodwork. In Landscape Pavers Limited regraded the gravel road and parking area and installed a catch basin and pipe to increase drainage. These repairs continued until September and totaled just under However, gypsum was mixed with the plaster applied to the exterior of the church which limited the longevity of the interventions. In the St. James vestry worked with the University of South Carolina Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology to compile an archaeological reconnaissance survey that found several unmarked graves outside of the churchyard which could belong to enslaved Africans. At the same time, the ST.

JAMES PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH HABS No. (Page 13) vestry reviewed proposals from George T. Fore & Associates for additional repairs to the building to correct the plaster repairs. Hurricane Hugo hit the southeastern United States in August but despite the Category Four winds and heavy rainfall, the only new repairs the church needed to make were to the roof. In Richard Marks Restoration was hired to complete a second phase of repairs. This phase of the restoration addressed drainage, exterior, and interior issues. Richard Marks Restoration removed and cleaned the church paving stones and laid down new gravel. They also repaired the exterior window frames, the interior and exterior stucco, the water table, installed a French drain, and performed paint analysis on the reredos and pulpit.

Bennett Preservation Engineering PC investigated and stabilized the gallery in August Bennett Preservation found the gallery to be severely overstressed, leading to cracks in the plaster underneath the gallery itself. The joists, girders, and headers from the gallery framing system were sistered with modern and engineered lumber. The rest of the framing connections were strengthened. A closet underneath the stairs was reintroduced, mirroring one present in the Historic American Building Survey in but later removed. The work concluded and the gallery reopened in March After near-constant battles with climate, neglect, and religious conflict, the church is still used for yearly services on Low Sunday.

The church graveyard is still actively used for burials and the church is being regularly maintained, studied, and documented.
