Description
The experience of the King's church in Early America was shaped by the unfolding imperial policies of the English government after 1675.
London-based civil and ecclesiastical officials supervised the extension and development of the church overseas.
The recruitment, appointment and financial support of the ministers was guided by London officials.
Transplanted to the New World without the traditional hierarchical structure of the church - no bishop served in the colonies during the colonial period - at the time of the American Revolution it was neither an English-American, or American-English church, yet modified in a distinctive manner.
