A Brief History of Cape St. Claire, Maryland
The St. Margaret's Church, Cape St.
Claire, MD
According to existing records, the Parish
was founded in 1692 as one of the original 30 Anglican
Parishes authorized by an Act of the Assembly of the
Colonial Province of Maryland. By 1696, Anne Arundel County
was laid out into four parishes: Herring Creeke (today's St.
James' in Lothian), South River (All Hallows,
Davidsonville), Middle Neck (St. Anne's, Annapolis), and
Broad Neck (St. Margaret's Westminster). The Parish of Broad
Neck was laid out on the north side of the Severn River and
originally included Towne Neck and Broad Neck Hundreds. The
parish served the spiritual needs of a humble group of
settlers who supported the church by contributing tobacco.
Between 1692 and 1695, the parishioners had to share the old
"Meeting House" of the Puritans located near Deep Creek on
the south bank of the Magothy River near Persimmon Point. In
1696, St. Margaret's First Church was erected on a tract of
155 acres. Early parishioners often came to worship by boat
since roads were scarce and often impassable. Our church is
still in possession of the original Silver Communion Service
which was presented to the Parish by John Brice as a gift in
1713 during its first generation. This church served the
needs of the community until 1731.
