        Name Ezekiel Jenkins
        Death Date 26 Jun 1750
        Birth Date 1699
        Event Type Burial
        Event Place Herndon, Fairfax, Virginia, United States of America
        Cemetery Saint Timothy's Episcopal Church
        Photograph Included N
        Note Contains Biography

        ---

        Born at "Billingsgate" Plantation, near Warsaw, later known as Bladensfield Plantation.
        Son of Capt. John Jenkins and wife Martha, said to be Martha Garner, the daughter of John Garner and Susannah Keene (ref., Jenkins of the Northern Neck by Amelia Cleland Gilreath, former president of the National Genealogical Society).

        Interment unverified (markers at cemetery destroyed), but he died in what was then Loudoun County near his daughter Elizabeth Self who lived very near this site and near the Sugarland Chapel/St. Timothy's at the time of her father's death and is thought to be buried here herself. The Sugarland Chapel was in existence in 1749, somewhere near this site though apparently the church did not move to this exact site until 1773.

        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).

        Hopkins quotes the following advertisement which appeared in the 4 January 1773 issue of the Virginia Gazette:
        TO LET, to the lowest bidder, on the second Monday in March, if fair, if not, the next fair day, on the land of Joshua Evans, in Cameron Parish, Loudoun County.

        The building of a brick church 53 x 40, two feet in the clear, and the walls to be 28 feet high from the surface. One hundred and fifty pounds will be paid the undertaker the day the work is let, he giving bond and approved security. Three hundred and fifty pounds more will be paid in June next, and the other payments to be agreed on the day the work is let. Any person inclined to engage in the said building is desired to attend at the time and place appointed.

        SUGARLAND CHAPEL CEMETERY/ St. TIMOTHY'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH
        "In the woods behind the tennis courts in the 1400 block of Powell's Tavern Place, Herndon, Virginia." (today)

        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.
        New burials were still occurring here as late as 1849.

        Ezekiel Jenkins married Mary (said to be Gunnell).
