History

Missionary priest Franklin R. Haff held the first Episcopal service in Oshkosh in 1850. The parish was briefly organized as St. Peter's parish, then reorganized as Trinity Episcopal Church in 1854, with David W. Tolford serving as first rector. The first church building was a wooden structure built and consecrated in 1857, and located at Algoma Boulevard and Division street. In 1887, the original building was razed. The current stone structure, a Richardsonian Romanesque design by architect William Waters, was built on the same site.
