History of the Presbyterian Church in the Forks of Brandywine, Chester County, Pa. (Brandywine Manor Presbyterian Church)


Book Description

The congregation of the Presbyterian Church of the Forks of Brandywine was organized in 1736 after getting permission to build a church in 1735 in present-day West Brandywine Township. The Great Schism of 1741 divided the congregation until 1758. A new church built in 1761 was named Manor Meetinghouse. In 1816 a new post office was named Brandwine Manor and that name was applied to the church, also.
