CH-68 St. Joseph's Catholic Church Pomfret Private

circa 1763 1849 (present building)

Completed in 1849, St. Joseph's Catholic Church at Pomfret consists of a 1-story

stuccoed brick building fronted by a 3-1/2-story stuccoed frame bell tower. Erected in

several stages, the building reflects the changing needs of this Catholic Congregation over

two centuries. The property is located on the north side of Marshall Corner Road adjacent

to the Pomfret Post Office. The church compound includes the sanctuary, a substantial

cemetery, and several modern-era ancillary buildings, all set on a 19-acre lot.

St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Pomfret was established in 1763 by Father George

Hunter. The first chapel to occupy the present site was located approximately 100 yards

northeast of the current church and stood until 1835 when it was demolished due to

deterioration. The second St. Joseph's Church was dedicated in 1849, and has, since

then, served the congregation continuously. The building's original appearance has been

significantly altered by the addition of a central frame bell tower in the late 19th century,

and the addition of stucco exterior cladding. The interior, however, retains much of its

original look, including its floor plan, galleries, shallow barrel-arched ceiling, and portions

of its decorative woodwork. Although extensively altered in the 20th century, the church

is among the best preserved mid-nineteenth century religious buildings documented in

Charles County.

Completed in 1849, St. Joseph's Catholic Church at Pomfret consists of a 1-story stuccoed brick building fronted by a 3 -1/2-story stuccoed frame bell tower. Erected in several stages, the building reflects the changing needs of this Catholic Congregation over two centuries. The property is located on the north side of Marshall Corner Road adjacent to the Pomfret Post Off ice. The church compound includes the sanctuary, a substantial cemetery, and several modern-era ancillary buildings, all set on a 19-acre lot.

The church is sited on approximately 19 open acres on the north side of Marshall Corner Road adjacent to the Pomfret Post Office. It shares the parcel with a sizable cemetery located north and east of the church building. In addition, several modern ancillary buildings occupy the compound, including a rectory and parish office. The site is accessed via a series of paved roads and scattered with several mature cedar trees.

During the earliest stage of construction (1839-1849), a 3-baywide, 3-bay deep brick church was erected with an arched center entry on its east gable end. This centered entry was flanked by 6/6 wood sash windows topped by decorative brick lintels. Two similar windows lit the interior gallery from this same east elevation. Three window bays, containing large rectangular apertures, extended along the depth of the church on its north and south flanks. The building originally featured a corbeled brick cornice and one exterior stove flue located near the northeast corner of the building.

The church's interior consisted of a single open sanctuary space with matching balconies extending down the length of the building. Resting on rows of Tuscan-style wood columns, the balconies are adorned with a classically-inspired balustrade. The ceiling was formed in a shallow barrel vault shape. Two aisles approached the altar with box-pews lining the building's flanks and filling the center of the church.

In 1879, the second stage of construction was completed. At that time, the sanctuary was removed and the west end of the building extended by one third the original length. This gable roof extension contained two new round-headed windows located on the flanks in the added bay. In addition, a second stove flue was added near the church's southwest corner. Eight memorial stainedglass windows were also added at this time.

The third major stage of construction altered the overall design of the structure with the addition of the square bell tower at the front of the church. Completed in 1893, the frame bell tower was built by Ernest Frazier of Washington, D.C. at a cost of $675.00, exclusive of painting and plastering. Three and a half stories in height, the tower featured a double-leaf entry crowned by semicircular fanlights, and paired elongated windows at the second story. These paired windows were capped by arched inset decorative panels. Paired rounded-headed vents pierced the third level of the tower, while a two-stage steeple with an open belfry originally crowned the tower (see pre-1929 photo) .

Other minor additions and alterations were made to St. Joseph's over the years. These include the addition of the sacristy in 1903, the stuccoing of the building's exterior ~n 1929, and the installation of electricity around 1939.

Numerous structural and cosmetic alterations made over the past fifty years have significantly altered the appearance of the church. The most major of these changes include the application of "Celotex" panels1 to the building's exterior (1942-1950), the shoring up of the bell tower with concrete block and stucco, and the reconstruction of the bell tower (1951). In addition, in 1990, the sacristy was altered and extended by a 1-story cinder block addition that wraps around the northwest corner of the building where it forms additional seating space for worshipers.

In 1977, the church underwent a major remodeling (see 1977 photos). This included the removal of most of the interior fixtures and finishes. The ceiling was refinished and new lighting and heating systems installed. The pews were replaced and the floors carpeted. The chancel was also redesigned at this time. Its recessed arch that framed the chancel was diminished in depth and attenuated Tuscan columns were added at the springing of the arch as supports. Two doors were also cut into the back wall of the church. One exterior door was set south of the altar with a transom above, and a second door cut to the north, accessing the sacristy. Much of the interior wood finishes were also replaced or altered during this renovation, and the light fixtures in the sanctuary replaced. However, the balconies, stairs, and entrance from the vestibule

county and state ===================================================================

remain intact (the original entry doors are stored in the Church's storage space at the northwest corner of the building) .

The bell tower has also been remodeled inside, with its second floor (accessed from the gallery) devoted for use as a gift shop. The belfry is still accessible through a pull-down ladder in the gift shop ceiling.

Most recently, in 1987, the stained glass windows were replaced for the second time. The only remaining 1879 stained glass window is located in the fanlight that crowns the original main entrance to the church.

OUTBUILDINGS:

Two non-historic outbuildings are associated with the historic church and cemetery. One is a 1970s, 1-story rambler-style brick and frame rectory located west of the sanctuary. The other is a 1950s frame office with a side gable roof and symmetrically arranged facade. According to church records, the historic rectory was demolished in 1987. This building may appear in an undated photograph of the church before its stuccoing (see pre-1929 photo) . It appears that the rectory was once located directly behind the chapel, and consisted of a frame side gable dwelling.

St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Pomfret was established in 1763 by Father George Hunter. The first chapel to occupy the present site was located approximately 100 yards northeast of the current church and stood until 1835 when it was demolished due to deterioration. The second St. Joseph's Church was dedicated in 1849, and has, since then, served the congregation continuously. The building's original appearance has been significantly altered by the addition of a central frame bell tower in the late 19th century, and the addition of stucco cladding. The interior, however, retains much of its original look, including its floor plan, shallow barrelarched ceiling, and portions of its decorative woodwork. Although extensively altered in the 20th century, the church is among the best preserved mid-nineteenth century religious buildings documented in Charles County.

Prior to the mid-18th century when St. Joseph's in Pomfret was founded, area Catholics worshiped at various private residences known as worship "stations." Separate chapels or rooms within the private residence were set aside for services, and traveling priests would visit and say mass. Several of these residence "stations" in Charles County have been identified. They include "Araby" (CH-11 NR), Acquinsicke (CH-53 NR), and Pleasant Hill (CH-78 NR) . 2

St. Joseph's Church, Pomfret was established by Father George Hunter, S.J. in 1763. In that year, Hunter purchased two acres of land from William Clements known as part of "Clements Addition." A small frame chapel was erected on the site, located approximately 100 yards northeast of the present church building. This chapel was used for mass on the first, third and fifth Sundays of the month, and continued to serve the congregation until 1835, when due to the building's deterioration, it was demolished. 3

In 1837, Father Thomas Lilly, S.J. established a subscription to raise funds for building a new church. A local resident and parishioner, Francis C. Green, donated additional land for the church in 1848. Construction on the new chapel had begun by 1839, when Father Aloysius Mudd recorded the cost of the bricks being

used to erect the new church. 4 William A. Maddox ·was contracted to build part of Pomfret Church for $1137, while William G. Brown was retained to paint the building in March 184 7. In a receipt of payment, contractor William A. Maddox acknowledged his payment "with the exception of some interest that accrued [sic] on the banister purchased by the Rev. Mr. Kroes of James Gren of Alexandria .... "5 This "banister" may refer to the balustrade that still adorns the gallery.

After ten years of construction, the church was finally completed, and the first mass was said there on January 6, 1849. Thirty years later, the need for additional space in the church motivated the congregation to contract for the removal of the chancel wall and the extension of the church by one third its original length. At the same time, eight memorial stained glass windows were installed in the church, including the only remaining historic panel still located above the main entrance to the sanctuary. The church was again altered in 1893, when the bell tower was erected at the front, and in 1903, when a sacristy was added at the west end. The church has undergone numerous repair and remodeling campaigns over the course of the 20th century (see discussion under Section 7) .

Numerous locally prominent Charles County residents have been members or pastors of St. Joseph's congregation during its 236 years of service. These include Francis Xavier Neale, brother of Leonard Neale, the second Archbishop of Baltimore; and Maurice McDonough, an 18th century merchant who donated his fortune for the education of poor children in Charles County, and who is buried at St. Joseph's Church cemetery.
