  • Capon Chapel ( /ˈkeɪpən/ KAY-pən), also historically known as Capon Baptist Chapel and Capon Chapel Church, is a mid-19th century United Methodist church located near to the town of Capon Bridge, West Virginia, in the United States. Capon Chapel is one of the oldest existing log churches in Hampshire County, along with Mount Bethel Church and Old Pine Church. A Baptist congregation was gathering at the site of the present-day church by at least 1756. Primitive Baptist minister John Monroe (1750–1824) is credited for establishing a place of worship at this site; he is interred in the church's cemetery. The land on which Capon Chapel was built originally belonged to William C. Nixon (1789–1869), a member of the Virginia House of Delegates; later, it was transferred to the Pugh family. The first documented mention of a church at the Capon Chapel site was in March 1852, when Joseph Pugh allocated the land to three trustees for the construction of a church and cemetery. During the early years of Capon Chapel, no Protestant denomination was the exclusive owner or occupant, and the church was probably utilized as a "union church" for worship by any Christian denomination. Capon Chapel was used as a place of worship by Baptists until the late 19th or early 20th century. In the 1890s, Capon Chapel was added as a place of worship on the Capon Bridge Methodist circuit of the Southern Methodist Episcopal Church. As of 2017, Capon Chapel remains a Methodist church, now a part of the United Methodist Church, holding Methodist services four Sundays per month at 1pm. Open table communion is held on the first Sunday of each month. Capon Chapel also maintains a daily devotion hotline. Capon Chapel's cemetery is surrounded by a wrought iron fence made by Stewart Iron Works, and contains the remains of John Monroe, William C. Nixon, West Virginia House of Delegates member Captain David Pugh (1806–1899), American Civil War veterans from the Union and the Confederacy, and free and enslaved African Americans. Capon Chapel, along with its cemetery, was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 12, 2012, in recognition of its representation of the rural religious architecture of the Potomac Highlands region, and for its service as an important rural church in Hampshire County.

  • Capon Chapel ( / K eɪ p ən / KAY -pən ), conocida históricamente como Capon Baptist Chapel y Capon Chapel Church, es una iglesia metodista de mediados del siglo XIX situada cerca de la localidad de Capon Bridge, Virginia Occidental, en los Estados Unidos. La capilla es una de las iglesias de tronco ("log churches") más antiguas del condado de Hampshire, junto con la Iglesia Mount Bethel y la Iglesia Old Pine . Ya en 1756 existía una congregación bautista que se reunía en el sitio de la iglesia actual. Se cree que el ministro bautista John Monroe (1750-1824) estableció un lugar de culto en este sitio. Monroe fue enterrado en el cementerio de la iglesia. El terreno en el que se construyó la Capon Chapel originalmente pertenecía a William C. Nixon (1789-1869), miembro de la Cámara de Delegados de Virginia; Más tarde, la propiedad fue transferida a la familia Pugh. La primera mención documentada de una iglesia en el sitio de la Capon Chapel es de marzo de 1852, cuando Joseph Pugh le asignó el terreno a tres fideicomisarios para la construcción de una iglesia y un cementerio. Durante los primeros años de Capon Chapel, ninguna denominación protestante fue propietaria u ocupante exclusiva de la iglesia, que probablemente era utilizada para el culto de diferentes denominaciones cristianas. Hasta finales del siglo XIX o principios del siglo XX Capon Chapel fue utilizada como lugar de culto por la comunidad bautista. En la década de 1890, sin embargo, la capilla empezó a formar parte del circuito Metodista de Capon Bridge, a su vez parte de la Iglesia Episcopal Metodista del Sur. En la actualidad, Capon Chapel sigue siendo una iglesia metodista, parte de la Iglesia Metodista Unida, que ofrece servicios todos los domingos a la 1pm y mantiene una línea directa de devoción diaria. Celebra la comunión el primer domingo de cada mes. El cementerio de Capon Chapel está rodeado por una cerca de hierro forjado hecha por Stewart Iron Works. En el cementerio están enterrados John Monroe, William C. Nixon, miembro de la Cámara de Delegados de Virginia Occidental, y el capitán David Pugh (1806-1899) así como veteranos de ambos lados de la Guerra Civil estadounidense y afroamericanos, tanto libres como esclavizados. Capon Chapel, junto con su cementerio, fue agregada al Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos el 12 de diciembre de 2012, en reconocimiento de su contribución a la arquitectura religiosa rural de la región de las Tierras Altas de Potomac y su servicio como una de las iglesias rurales más importantes del condado de Hampshire.
