Why didn't you mention that the St. Paul's is an Episcopal Church
The following is from the URL you attached
(http://freenet.vcu.edu/tourism/histrich/rvadir1.html#spaul).
St. Paul's Episcopal Church
815 E. Grace St.
Known as the "Cathedral of the Confederacy" because of the regular attendance
of Jefferson Davis and the when-in-town attendance of Robert E.
Lee. While in
Sunday services here April 2, 1865, Davis received the final word
that Lee's lines
had broken at Petersburg and that the president must evacuate his government.
Consecrated in 1845, this Greek Revival building still houses an active
congregation. Lee's and Davis' pews are marked. Tiffany windows. Visitors
welcome daily 10 am - 4 pm. Telephone: (804) 643-3589.
If Jefferson Davis was Catholic, why did he not attend a Catholic
church? Was there none in the capital of the Confederacy?
Howard Davis
