THE INDEPENDENT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
SAVANNAH, GEORGIA
Of the Christopher Wren School, the
church is suggestive of St. Martins-in-the-field,
of London. Founded in 1755 as a branch of the
Church of Scotland, the present building is a
reproduction of the one erected in 1819 and
destroyed by fire in 1889. Lowell Mason, while
organist here, composed the famous hymn,
"From Greenland's Icy Mountains". In 1885,
Woodrow Wilson was married to Ellen Axson,
granddaughter of the Pastor, the marriage
taking place in the manse.
