The Norwalk West Main Street site traces to 1828 when four acres were deeded to St Paul Episcopal Church for 61 dollars from Tweedy White and Hoyt of Connecticut. Platt Benedict linked early settlers and parish growth, with services once held in a log cabin and at the first courthouse. The church’s first building stood in 1835, burned in 1976, and the adjacent cemetery predates parish organization, with early burials and later relocation to Woodlawn Cemetery in 1854.
