St. Paul's was founded on January 18,1851 with 41 members who made plans for the church building on Chatham Street (Route 9) located just north of the village hall. The church was completed at a cost of about $8,000 and consecrated on June 22, 1852. In 1857, a house and land was purchased for $3,000 on Sylvester Street that now serves as the rectory. In 1868-69, it was decided to dismantle and reconstruct the church on the land on Sylvester Street.
In 1964, the Rev. Hohly donated the columbarium with it's landscaping and plantings as a memorial to his wife, Helen Wade Hohly. Rev. Hohly retired in 1964 and remained in Kinderhook until his death in 1968, when he was interred, along with his wife in the "Garden of the Resurrection".
The burial grounds are maintained through donations from the love ones, in memory of those interred. Donations can be made to St Paul's Episcopal Church identified as Columbarium Fund.
