Cople Parish:  We MADE History.

Cople Parish (Westmoreland, ca1664) embraced the eastern portion of Westmoreland County and extended westward to unmarked eastern line of Washington Parish. In 1923 [sic] the Council of the Diocese [CofE] established the boundary between Cople and Montross Parish (est. 1850) as: "… beginning on the Maryland line [nb: water line] at the mouth of Nomini Creek, thence up the said Creek to a headwater thereof approximately one half mile southeast of Nomini Grove, on main County road, thence by a line between Cople and Montross Magisterial districts to the line of Richmond County, All that portions of Westmoreland County lying east of this line to be and remain Cople Parish…" (DV, 1923, 24)
