Commemorating Mary Lindley Murray, wife

home was on this site on Sept 15?, 1776

when the American forces were being

withdrawn from the lower part of New york

to join forces at Harlem and King's Bridge.

The British were in close pursuit of the

column under General Putnam, which was

not more than ten minutes ahead. General

Howe and his staff stopped at the Murray

home to inquire how long since General

Putnam had passed. Ms. Murray assured

them he was beyond successful pursuit

and as the day was "insufferably hot" urged

them to dismount and partake of

refreshments. They yielded to her

persuasion and this charming Quaker lady

and her lovely daughter succeeded in

delaying them formore than two hours, thus

enabling the Americans to reach Harlem

Heights in safety.

"This building, erected in 1786 and rebuilt

in 1844, is used for the worship of Almighty

God, by the congregation of the Reformed

Church of Staten Island. The congregation

was organized in 1663 by the Reverend

Samuel Brisius, who began preaching on

Staten Island in 1660. The congregation

was the first religious organization on

Staten Island. At least two, possibly three

buildings preceded the erection of the

present edifice. A hexagonal building of

logs erected in 1751 was destroyed by the

British troops during the Revolution. A

more substantial building followed in 1785.

In 1844 the structure was rebuilt and

enlarged, upon the site occupied by the

present Church building. Following a

destructive fire in 1929 the interior of the

present building was completely

remodeled. More than 270 years have

gone by during which only 16 ministers

have served the congregation as pastors."
