About
An Historic Church…
One of the oldest churches in York County, Virginia, Grafton Christian Church was founded on May 11, 1834. In that year the sanctuary, which is still in use, was constructed of bricks made by hand on the property. As the only brick church in the county, it became known as “Brick Church” thus the present address of Brick Church Road. During the Civil War the church building was used as a hospital by the Confederate Army, and soldiers were buried in unmarked graves in the cemetery. Later the Union Army made the church into a picket post, and on the west side of the building was a window sill (recently replaced) with visible marks where a horse chewed on the wood. There is also evidence that the church was struck by cannon fire. Even during this time the church remained alive in the hearts and homes of its people.
