During the colonial period, while the Anglican Church was the state church of
the UK and the Empire (the Duchy of Hanover excepted), no bishops were
appointed to any of the 13 colonies.
##The Bishop in England had full authority over the Church and its servants
in Virginia, but he had a difficult time getting very many of the ablest
priests to come to Virginia where the pay was not as good or as certain and the
living was far rougher.
