"Chopawamsic", Chopawamsic School, and Old Chopawamsic
Church no longer
exist, according to the USGS
(
http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form).
Chopawamsic and Chopawamsic School were located in what is now the
Marine Corps Development and Education Command at Quantico (the FBI
Training Academy is close to the intersection where Chopawamsic used to
lie), but Old Chopawamsic Church, located just north of them, m-a-y be
in Prince William Forest Park. PWFP is part of the U.S. Park Service,
and a visitor may not have to go through Quantico security if they take
Joplin Road/SR-619 West at I-95 Exit 150 (Prince William Forest
Park/Triangle) and then take a left onto "MCB-1" about 4-5 miles west
of the Interstate.
Here's the location of Chopawamsic (historical):
