St. Luke's Episcopal Church History

First Services of the Episcopal Church of Smethport were held in 1842 with only three members. Irregular services were held until 1872, when Bishop Kerfoot established a mission, with an executive committee of John C. Hamlin, Philetus Ford, J. C. Backus, and D. C. Young. There were 24 initial communicants.

In 1867 Mrs. John C. Hamlin and Mrs. Henry Hamlin organized the first community Sunday school to be held in Smethport. More than 100 attended these ecumenical classes, which continued until various churches started their own.

In 1879 a parish named Saint Luke’s was established and incorporated. The Rev. Hugh Q. Miller retired in 1880, to be followed by the Rev. John Huber McCandless. The first church was erected and consecrated August 21, 1881, and was located on N. Fulton Street. That structure serves as the Lutheran Church today. In 1885 Rev. McCandless married Henry Hamlin’s second daughter, Emma Marion of Smethport.

By 1890 the church had grown to 60 families, 160 communicants and 300 members by baptism. Ground was broken for a new stone structure located at Church Street on Main in May 1891 and consecrated in September 1892. The new church, designed by famed architect William Halsey Wood, was funded almost entirely by Henry Hamlin. The Parish Hall was built in 1901-1902 and was opened for use on Easter Day, 1902.
