SUGARLAND CHAPEL CEMETERY/ St. TIMOTHY'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH
(Fairfax County)
In the woods behind the tennis courts in the 1400 block of Powell's Tavern Place
Herndon, Virginia USA
Original Information from Volume 4 of the Gravestone Books
The cemetery at Sugarland Chapel, also known as Saint Timothy’s Episcopal Church, is on a hill straddling the Fairfax-Loudoun County line north of the town of Herndon. The old Anglican church building has long since disappeared, but evidence of the cemetery still remains in the woods behind the tennis courts in the Crestbrook subdivision. The site may be accessed from the public path to the tennis and basketball courts in the 1400 block of Powell’s Tavern Place. A path leads into the woods behind the tennis courts.
Sugarland Chapel was built to serve the people of the Anglican Cameron Parish, formed from Truro Parish of Fairfax County in 1749, according to Dranesville Methodism by Margaret Lail Hopkins. Cameron Parish became a part of Loudoun County when that county was formed from Fairfax in 1757.
On 10 September 1773, Joshua Evans and his wife Martha deeded three acres of their land to John Carter, trustee for Cameron vestry, “for the use of the said parish and for the purpose of Erecting a church thereon” (Loudoun County Deed Book I, pages 426-427).
