Yeocomico Church Revisited


Just this Saturday, June 2, I visited this most unusual church again. I inveigled Jack, an carpenter, artist, and poet beyond compare for a run up the Northern Neck. We rocketted up to the church and spent three hours talking with Bill King, a member of the congregation, who engaged us with the history and anecdotes about the church and the community. He was most gracious and allowed us to wander about the church, enter the interior, and barrage him with a host of questions and observations.

The church is open on the last Saturday each month from 10:00 to 12:00 for tours; I highly recommend anyone interested in these churches visit this one. Check their website for directions: http://www.copleparish.org/.

I have a full writeup of this church at Wikipedia; Search for Yeocomico Church to find the article.
