Background

The building is the replacement of an earlier log chapel of unknown origin. It is possible that neighbor Benjamin Banneker attended services in such a log building.[2] An obelisk that the Maryland Bicentennial Commission and the State Commission on Afro American History and Culture erected in 1977 to commemorate Banneker stands in the church's yard near his unmarked grave.[3] His grave is among less than two dozen marked graves in the graveyard adjacent to the chapel.

The chapel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1][4]
