From 1865 to 1927, Reverend John James McCook spent his days on East Hartford’s Main Street as the pastor of St. John’s Episcopal Church, and his evenings on Hartford’s Main Street as the patriarch of the Butler-McCook family. Learn about his life, his work at the Edward Tuckerman Potter-designed church, and his family’s continued connection to the parish.
