"Norfolk, Va. Old St. Paul's Church."

Description: "Old St. Paul's Church, Norfolk. Old St. Paul's Church, on Church Street, was built in 1739; it was formerly called "Old Church", but was given the name of St. Paul in 1832. It is situated in an old cemetery, having many very old tombstones, and is to-day the only authentic building in Norfolk that antedates the Revolution by 50 years. Its picturesque, vine-clad walls were all that was left after Lord Dunmore's bombardment of the city in 1776."
