Historical Highway MarkersGoose Creek ChapelF-7
A short distance west is the site of the "Chapel above Goose Creek", built by the vestry of Truro Parish in 1736. Augustine Washington, father of George Washington, was a member of the vestry at the time. This was the first church on the soil of Loudoun County, erected as a chapel of ease for the benefit of early settlers.
