The only two buildings remaining of the community are the Settle-Dean Cabin, the home of a family of slaves, and Prosperity Baptist Church and Cemetery.

[1] In the 1850s, one of the emancipated slaves who lived in Conklin, Charles Dean, was willed the 142 acre property of his slaveowners, the Settle family.

He, with assistance from his daughter Jennie Dean, donated a portion of his to establish Prosperity Baptist Church in 1889.

The new community would engulf Conklin as the homebuilding company Toll Brothers began developing residential subdivisions at the site.

The Settle-Dean Cabin, which was in poor condition, was dismantled and relocated on the western side of Loudoun County Parkway to make way for the new development and informative signs were added at the new site.
