There is a picture of John Marks in Ketoctin Church. A new
church was recently started there, but it has nothing to do
with the original church, other than it pays rent to the
Ketoctin Association. The old church has a service each
first Sunday in June and that it is the extent of its activity,
other than the cemetery is continuing to grow. They bought
additional land several years ago. There are no records
other than the minute books I mentioned previously.
I am a member of Ketoctin Chapter, DAR and our chapter
placed a plaque in the church with John, Isaiah and Abel
Marks names on it in 1977. The grave of Isaiah was marked
in 1954. The CAR (Children of the American Revolution)
Chapter here is named for John Marks. He is buried in
Ketoctin Cemetery at the church
The Balch Library (a genealogy library) in Leesburg, VA
would have some information on John Marks. When you
get the website, you will notice off to the side Cemetery
Database. Click on that and write in Marks (no first name)
and you will see a number of them. That database covers
all the cemeteries in the Loudoun County.
This is their website:
