 The eight pews located in the west end of the church were set aside for "Inhabitants and House Keepers of the Parish".Construction of the church building was completed in 1774, just before the start of the American Revolutionary War.Early discussions of the Fairfax Resolves took place at the site in that year; among those in attendance at the meetings were George Washington and George Mason, and Rector Massey was among the signatories at their adoption.
