About Samuel Seabury

Samuel Seabury (1729–1796) was an Anglican minister who became the first American Episcopal bishop. A controversial figure, Seabury was a leading Loyalist during the Revolutionary War who wrote a series of letters supporting the British Crown under the name A.W. Farmer. He was imprisoned for six weeks during the Revolution, and after the war he remained in the United States. He was elected as the first Episcopal bishop in America in 1783. He organized the American Episcopal Church and established the Episcopal Academy of Connecticut. His writings are still read and studied today.
