The church is long gone and it's records are now kept by St. Mary's of the Assumption Church in Hockessin. The original Coffee Run Cemetery is still in existiance and is being maintained by St. Mary's. The Coffe Run Church is an important parish in the Diocese of Wilmington and some history of it is recorded in various historys. I'd suggest contacting the Diocese or St. Mary's if you want mor information. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo!
