Summary: | Bruton Parish Church, Williamsburg, Virginia, circa 1956-1958. Caption reads: "This view, which recreates an eighteenth-century service in Bruton Parish Church, was taken from the Paramount-Colonial Williamsburg film 'Williamsburg - The Story of a Patriot.'

Here many great American patriots, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Marshall, and Patrick Henry, worshipped. It has been in continuous use since colonial days."
