Hi Nyttend! You have an original picture attached to the First Denbigh Parish Church Archeological Site article here . In the description, you have it located 'off Miller Road' at 37° 06′ 14″ N, 76° 33′ 07″ W. Based on the NRHP nomination documentation, https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/VLR_to_transfer/PDFNoms/121-0037_First_Denbigh_Church_AE_Site_1982_Final_Nomination.pdf, the location was cited as being nearest 18 Walters Road, about 4500ft south, at the next creek convergence. Language in the NRHP doc described 15 feet out of 50 of the church having being lost to erosion before rip rap was added, implying it was right on the river. The Newport News property records at https://assessment.nnva.gov/PT/datalets/datalet.aspx?mode=sales&UseSearch=no&pin=178000121&jur=700&taxyr=2025&LMparent=20 also match the NRHP assertion of a Donald Shenk owning the land at the time of the 1981/2 submission. Before I update, do you happen to have a different source or personal knowledge that would put the location that 0.85 miles north, near Miller Road?
