(In English canon law, a parish is an area under the spiritual care of a priest. Not to be confused with the more commonly understood use of the word “parish” meaning a local “fully self-supporting congregation with a full-time priest.) Cameron Parish had jurisdiction over the western part of Fairfax County and with its creation in 1751 all of Loudoun County. Cameron Parish came from a minor title of Thomas, Lord Fairfax, Baron of Cameron. With the end of the Revolutionary War, the Episcopal Church in Virginia held its first assembly to organize the Protestant Episcopal Church in the Commonwealth of Virginia on 18 May 1784. On 22 December 1784 the Episcopal Church was incorporated in Virginia, with the Diocese of Virginia being created by 1790. Cameron Parish was followed by Shelbourne Parish in 1770 and these two parishes encompassed all of Loudoun County until 1840, when Meade Parish was created and named for the third Episcopal bishop of Virginia, William Meade (November 1789-March 1862). Emmanuel Church was consecrated on 21 July 1843, as part of Meade Parish and included Trinity Church in Upperville, VA. In 1853, Meade Parish was divided into two, to create Johns Parish for the eastern half of Loudoun County. Johns Parish was named for Bishop John Johns (July 1796- April 1876), fourth Episcopal bishop of Virginia. Emmanuel Church now became part of the newly created parish which also included Episcopalians of Aldie; who did not yet have their own church building but used a common building shared amongst other Protestant denominations in Aldie. The Church of Our Redeemer in Aldie was eventually built in 1890. Johns Parish now encompassed the towns of Upperville, Middleburg, and Aldie. Another reorganization happened in 1885 when Oatlands’ Church of Our Savior became part of Johns Parish and Upperville reverted back to Meade Parish. The registers in this collection originally were in one large “Parish Register” but for ease of use by researchers, the pages have been separated into folders by church and location.

  • Patrick Henry
    LIBERTY UNIVERSITY PATRICK HENRY: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HARMONIZED RELIGIOUS TENSIONS A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE HISTORY DEPARTMENT IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY BY KATIE MARGUERITE KITCHENS LYNCHBURG, VIRGINIA APRIL 1, 2010 Patrick Henry: The Significance of Harmonized Religious Tensions By Katie Marguerite Kitchens, MA Liberty University, 2010 SUPERVISOR: Samuel Smith This study explores the complex religious influences shaping Patrick Henry’s belief system. It is common knowledge that he was an Anglican, yet friendly and cooperative with Virginia Presbyterians. However, historians have yet to go beyond those general categories to the specific strains of Presbyterianism and Anglicanism which Henry uniquely harmonized into a unified belief system. Henry displayed a moderate, Latitudinarian, type of Anglicanism. Unlike many other Founders, his experiences with a specific strain of Presbyterianism confirmed and cooperated with these Anglican commitments. His Presbyterian influences could also be described as moderate, and latitudinarian in a more general sense. These religious strains worked to build a distinct religious outlook characterized by a respect for legitimate authority, whether civil, social, or religious. This study goes further to show the relevance of this distinct religious outlook for understanding Henry’s political stances. Henry’s sometimes seemingly erratic political principles cannot be understood in isolation from the wider context of his religious background. Uniquely harmonized

XNASMUCH as the obtaining of salvation tlirougli Jesus Christ our Lord, to the glory of the eternal God, is the chief object claims which the attention of man ; and considering, that in the attainment of this object the dispensation of the Gospel is principally instrumental it is manifestly of the highest importance, that the best means be used to insure the faithful preaching of the Gospel, and the pure administration of ail its ordinances. With this view, therefore, institutions for the education of youth intended for the holy ministry, have been esta- blished in all Christian countries, and have been found, by long experience, most eminently conducive to the prosperity of the Church, Hence the founders of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America, did, from its very origin, exert themselves with peculiar zeal to establish and endow colleges, academies, and schools, for the education of youth for the Gospel minis- try. So rapid, however, has been the extension of this Church, and so disproportionate, of late, has been the number of ministers educated, to the call which has been made for ndnisterial service, that some additional and vigorous eiTorts to increase the supply are loudly and aflectingiy demanded.

  • “Beyond the Character of the Times”: Anglican Revivalists in Eighteenth-Century Virginia
    “Beyond the Character of the Times”: Anglican Revivalists in Eighteenth-Century Virginia By Frances Watson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Liberty University 2021 Table of Contents Introduction 2 Chapter One: Beyond Evangelical – Anglican Revivalists 14 Chapter Two: Beyond Tolerant – Spreading Evangelicalism 34 Chapter Three: Beyond Patriotic – Proponents of Liberty 55 Conclusion 69 Bibliography 77 ~ 1 ~ Introduction While preaching Devereux Jarratt’s funeral service, Francis Asbury described him thus: “He was a faithful and successful preacher. He had witnessed four or five periodical revivals of religion in his parish. When he began his labours, there was no other, that he knew of, evangelical minister in all the province!”1 However, at the time of his death, Jarratt would be one of a growing number of Evangelical Anglican ministers in the province of Virginia. Although Anglicanism remained the established church for the first twenty three years of Jarratt’s ministry, the Great Awakening forcefully brought the message of Evangelicalism to the colonies. As the American Revolution neared, new ideas about political and religious freedom arose, and Evangelical dissenters continued to grow in numbers. Into this scene stepped Jarratt, his friend Archibald McRobert, and his student Charles Clay. These three men would distinguish themselves from other Anglican clergymen by emulating the characteristics of the Great Awakening in their ministries, showing tolerance in their relationships with other religious groups, and providing support for American freedoms. Devereux Jarratt, Archibald McRobert, and Charles Clay all lived and mainly ministered to communities in the Piedmont area.

  • Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies
    Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies BY BABETTE M. LEVY Preface NE of the pleasant by-products of doing research O work is the realization of how generously help has been given when it was needed. The author owes much to many people who proved their interest in this attempt to see America's past a little more clearly. The Institute of Early American History and Culture gave two grants that enabled me to devote a sabbatical leave and a summer to direct searching of colony and church records. Librarians and archivists have been cooperative beyond the call of regular duty. Not a few scholars have read the study in whole or part to give me the benefit of their knowledge and judgment. I must mention among them Professor Josephine W, Bennett of the Hunter College English Department; Miss Madge McLain, formerly of the Hunter College Classics Department; the late Dr. William W. Rockwell, Librarian Emeritus of Union Theological Seminary, whose vast scholarship and his willingness to share it will remain with all who knew him as long as they have memories; Professor Matthew Spinka of the Hartford Theological Sem- inary; and my mother, who did not allow illness to keep her from listening attentively and critically as I read to her chapter after chapter. All students who are interested 7O AMERICAN ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY in problems concerning the early churches along the Atlantic seaboard and the occupants of their pulpits are indebted to the labors of Dr. Frederick Lewis Weis and his invaluable compendiums on the clergymen and parishes of the various colonies.
