Fork Church

Historical highway marker E-5 · Hanover County

Fork Church was first housed in a 1722 frame building near the present church site. It was known as "The Chapel in the Forks" and derived its name from the nearby confluence of the North and South Anna rivers and the Little and Newfound rivers. The present building was erected between 1736 and 1740.

Erected in memory of Stuart Anderson Oliver, 1982
