Notes
This building, also known as the parish house, was attached to St. Paul's Cathedral on Bank Street between St. Paul and Pine Streets. The parish house fire occurred in February 1910. The cathedral itself was destroyed by fire in 1971; the existing St. Paul's Cathedral was built on a new site on Cherry Street. The cathedral fire is discussed in Liisa Reimann, Burlington Firefighting (Charleston, SC: Arcadia Publishing, 2006).
