Church Record Sunday: St. Anne's Episcopal Church (Nokesville)

ST. ANNE'S TO BE REBUILT

Contract Let for New Episcopal Church at Nokesville Tuesday

A committee of the vestry of St. Anne's Episcopal Church at Nokesville, which was destroyed by fire last winter, on Tuesday awarded a contract for the erection of the new church at a cost of $4,300 to Mr. W. F. Hanback, of Warrenton, who built the original St. Anne's and also builder of St. James Church at Warrenton. While the contract does not specify any time for the completion of the church, the work is to begin very soon with the expectation of having it ready for use before winter.

The new church will be almost a reproduction of the building destroyed by fire. Material changes include a cellar with furnace room, a metal shingle roof replacing the wooden roof on the old frame building and a four-foot addition to the vestry room for the accommodation of a Sunday School class.
