Have you checked the Diocesan Archives? In the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States, the general practice is that when a parish is closed all of the records are to be sent to the Diocesan Archives. Since I am not sure which Diocese Rockland County is in, you might check the web site maintained by the national church headquarters at http://www.episcopalchurch.org/ The web site maintained by the national church headquarters should lead you to the accurate diocesan web site, which should provide all of the information that you require. The national church also maintains an archive in Texas, but I am not at all sure what is housed in that facility.

It looks to be situated on Jones Point in Stony Point. No address is given. I presume, this is because the church is long defunct. Are there any known records held by a library or private individual? Apparently Amanda Youmans (George J Youmans & Hannah Hogencamp) was baptized there in 1867, I'd really love to get a peek at that baptism.

With all the stories of Rockland County Pastors and Reverends and Preachers hoarding the registers it completely slipped my mind to check archives. Brian
