Col. Page was a prominent area landowner and the progenitor of a distinguished Virginia family. After Bruton Parish was established in 1674, Col. Page gave the land for the churchyard and made a generous donation toward the construction of a new church, which was completed in 1683. The foundation of that brick church is outlined in stone and located just north of the monument of Gov. Edward Nott.
