Glebe Land

After 1619 these 100 acres of land were set aside for the benefit of the Jamestown parish church and minister. Richard Buck was the first clergyman to have use of it. Later on Francis Bolton became minister at "James Citty" and he, too, had "leave to make a lease of the Glebe land neere unto Archers Hope."

Marker is on Colonial National Historic Parkway 2.7 miles east of Jamestown Road (Virginia Route 31).
