Geocache Description:

Flushing Freedom mile series. 1 of 5 caches placed along a walking tour in Flushing NY. ***** FTF goes to TOMFLUSHING!*****

What a great walking tour full of history. Caches placed along the route to add to the enjoyment. Unfortunately the sightes are too close together for me to place a cache at each site so you will have to just fill in the gaps between caches with some sight seeing. St. George's Episcopal Church
St. George's parish, established as a mission church of England in 1704, was the second religious organization in Flushing. Services were held in the old Guardhouse (at Main Street & Northern Blvd.) until 1746 when the first church was built on Main Street. The second church, erected in 1821, served until the present 1854 building was erected. Francis Lewis, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, served as a vestryman for many years at St. George's Church.
