Chubb Chapel 2015 Calendar CoverChubbtown was a self-sufficient African American community founded pre-Civil War during the mid 1800's and covered over 1280 acres of land in Floyd and Polk Counties. Eight brothers migrated from North Carolina to develop the community and build Chubb Chapel United Methodist Church. Chubb Chapel was constructed in 1870 and is located on Chubbtown Road. Today, the church and a few homes are the only standing structures that were a part of the community. Chubb Chapel, recognized on the National Registry of Historical places, is significant architecturally because of its small vernacular Gothic Revival-style
