Although the Dent Chapel on the campus of the former Charlotte Hall School is later than most of the churches I am looking for, it was so unexpected that I am including it.
From Wikipedia: Charlotte Hall, formerly an all-boys military academy in St. Mary's County, was established in 1774 by Queen Charlotte to provide for the liberal and pious education of youth to better fit them for the discharge of their duties for the British Empire. It was fully accredited by the Maryland State Department of Education.
The landed estate of the school embraced 360 acres. The School was non-sectarian and of high moral tone. There were many illustrious graduates, persons of all major professions, clergy and congressmen.
The school closed in 1976, and became the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home. Sadly, only two of the original buildings remain: the 1883 church and 1806 Superintendent's house.
The Dent Chapel is a small Victorian Gothic church erected in memory of Rev. Hatch Dent, the first principal of Charlotte Hall.

I got married in this church in 2007, I could look through my pictures for interior pictures if you would like.
