The Old Manahawkin Baptist Church is a
Gothic Revival Church originally built prior
to 1758. The grounds contain a site of a
Revolutionary War skirmish in 1781 and a mass
burial ground for numerous shipwreck victims.
During the Revolutionary War, in the "Skirmish
at Manahawken" between Captain Reuben
Randolph's Manahawkin Militia and John Bacon's
band of "Pine Pirates" or "Refugees," wounded
members of the Manahawkin Militia were treated
and cared for in the church. Several veterans of
the Revolution are buried in the cemetery sur-
rounding the church. Owned by the Historical
Society, the building is widely used as a meeting
place and a depository for artifacts as well as for
summer concerts and historical tours.
