The cornerstone of Saint Mary's was laid on September 2, 1847, by Bishop John H. K. Henshaw. The church, and over eighty acres of land, were given by Miss Sarah Gibbs of Oakland, Portsmouth, Rhode Island, as a "humble thank-offering to God for innumerable bounties of His Providence and Grace."

Saint Mary's Church was designed by Richard Upjohn, an Englishman, who designed Trinity Church, New York, the Church of the Holy Cross, Middletown, and St. Stephen's Church and Grace Church, Providence. He was also the architect of several of the larger houses built in Newport around that period.
