The St. Stephens congregation spearheaded the acquisition and development of the Elk Run Church Historic Site, which is now managed by Fauquier County Parks and Recreation.
Tour the Mini-Museum to view a segment of the 1750’s church foundation, as well as some of the artifacts discovered during the seven year archaeological dig.
Some display highlights include:
• The Manahoac Indians, who occupied the area before Virginia settlers.
• History of the nearby Germantown settlement and relationship with the Church.
• Highlights of the Anglican Church in Colonial Virginia.
• Chief Justice John Marshall, Midland native.
• Details and discoveries of the archaeological dig.
• Informative outdoor site markers.
