The present church edifice was erected in 1847 (upon land purchased of Tompkins D. Wallace, the year previous), and dedicated on the 15th of October, of the same year. From a date on a semi-circular stone, lying in front of the door, we learn that the old church, or meeting house, which stood east of the present building, was erected as early as 1764, upon land given by Jesse Close. This is confirmed by the following items, taken from an old account book in the possession of Mr. John Close :
"October, the year 1764, T. Ebenczer Brown, of Salem, have received of Samuel Cole, of Cortlandt manor, the full and just sum of five pounds, received by me on the acompt of the Meetin House."
"November the 20th, the year 1764, Ebenezer Brown, of Salem, have received of Solomon Close two pounds, seven shillings and tenpence, on the accompt of the Meetin House. Received by Ebenezer Brown."
