The Church of the Resurrection, the oldest church in Richmond Hill, began as a mission set up by Grace Church, Jamaica, which in turn had been formed in 1702 with a charter from Queen Anne of England.
This Protestant Episcopal Church was the first church erected in Richmond Hill in 1874 and is still located at same location on 118th Street between Hillside and 85th Aves. The site for the church was given by Albon Man, founder of Richmond Hill. The building cost was about $5,500. A member of Grace Church New York City gave $1,500 and the parishioners of Grace Church, Jamaica subscribed $1,000. The balance of the money was raised by the ladies and children of the community working in various ways.
