- Abstract: Samuel Orr Capers was born August 2, 1899 in Anderson, South Carolina. After being ordained to the priesthood in 1927, he served for several years at parishes in Texas, eventually becoming rector of Christ Episcopal Church in San Antonio. He retired his position in 1967, after serving for 37 years. Samuel Capers was active in numerous service organizations, including serving as Chairman of the Board of the Salvation Army, president for the San Antonio Association of the Blind, and as a trustee for the Texas Military Institute and Saint Mary’s Hall. He won considerable affection from military personnel, and his correspondence reveals a variety of work on behalf of the military community in San Antonio, particularly during the Second World War. Samuel Orr Capers died June 17, 1984.
