Significance: Old Trinity Church has been carefully restored to its original appearance in the late 17th century and furnished according to orders of Queen Anne issued in 1703. The restoration was carried forward, 1953-1960 as a memorial to Walter Percy Chrysler and his wife, Della Viola Forker, by their daughter, Bernice and her husband, Colonel Edgar William Garbisch. The Garbisches are residents of Dorchester County.
