St. Ann's Episcopal Church from St. Ann's Avenue

A church built in 1841 and dedicated to Gouverneur Morris's mother, Ann, designated a New York City individual Landmark on June 9, 1967. Wikipedia's Mott Haven article calls it the Bronx's oldest church; that is the article's own characterization.

History

Lewis Morris, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, is buried here, as is Gouverneur Morris.
