VIRGINIA, OVERWHARTON PARISH REGISTER, 1720 to 1760. OLD STAFFORD COUNTY. BY WM. F. BOOGHER. THIS Parish was co‑extensive with Stafford County, covering a part of what was once Washington Parish, extending about eighty miles along the Potomac, in breadth about four and twenty miles, embracing within its territory what is now Prince William, Loudoun, Fairfax, Alexandria Counties and a part of Fauquier until 1730, when Prince William County was taken from Stafford, and Hamilton Parish was erected, succeeding Overwharton as the frontier parish. Of the early history of Overwharton Parish and its rectors, but little is known. Overwharton parish originally embraced what are now the counties of Stafford, Prince William, Fairfax, Loudoun, Arlington and the eastern watershed of Fauquier, or perhaps a more accurate statement would be that this vast territory was yet to be subdivided into the parishes which it afterwards comprised. As a matter of fact parochial jurisdiction in Overwharton shortly after its formation was confined to a comparatively small strip of land along the Potomac about eighty miles in length and from three to twenty miles in width The Rev. Alex ander Scott, 21 minister of Overwharton from 1711 until his death in 1738 states, in a report to the Bishop of London in 1724, that there were 650 families in his parish, 80 to 100 communicants, one church and several chapels. 22 (Fauquier During the Proprietorship/ Meads Old Churches) DMK Heritage Project converted this historic book into a digital format for in-depth research for genealogist and historians with limited time and resources.
