Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the Parish of Trinity Church, Oxford, Philadelphia: Read in the Church on Sunday, Aug, 2d, 1857 Agreeably to notice, I proceed to read this morning the sketch which I have prepared of the history of this ancient Parish. I only premise, that, whilst it is far from being as full as could have been desired, it is as much so as the scanty materials at hand enabled me to make it. Until the year 1715, there are no parochial records, and even after that, they are very meagre and unsatisfactory, and yet, except for the first thirty years of our church existence, I have been able to derive little or no information from any other source. The precise time when this Parish originated, or rather when the services of the Church of England began to be performed on or near this spot, is unknown.
