William Popham’s original land lease required the vestry and wardens of St. James the Less to pay a silver dime to a Popham descendant whenever requested. Join us Sunday morning at 10:30am for a service of traditional hymns, liturgy, and the historic payment of a silver dime to members of the Popham family. Followed at 11:30 by a forum by Jim Boulden, Popham descendent, sharing his recent research on the Popham and Morris family history with the slave trade in Barbados, with special attention given to the enslaved men, women and children who worked on their estates. Come learn from this important lecture on the complexity of our history, which is also part of our identity as Episcopalians, parishioners of St. James the Less, and members of the worldwide Anglican Communion.
