Additional Details:
The chapel, dedicated to the worship of any denomination which requests it, already has been the scene of scores of marriages. Near this site on august 13, 1587, occurred the first administration of a protestant sacrament in the new world, the baptism of the friendly Indian, Manteo. A week later the infant Virginia dare was christened.
