Excerpt from One Hundredth Anniversary Commemorating the Building of St. James Church, Wilmington, N. C: April 30th and May 1st, 1939, the Two Hundred and Tenth Year of the Parish; Historical Notices Up to this time (1747) the congregation in this town had used the county court-house as a house of public worship - having as yet no more suitable place in which their clergyman could officiate. Among those who contributed to supply this want, the name of Michael Higgins deserves a grateful remembrance. This person was a faithful and well-tried friend of the Church in this place; and to his county the congregation are to this day indebted for the ground which forms the last earthly resting place of their departed relatives and friends.
