Singers Glen was first settled in 1809 by Joseph Funk and other descendants of the German Anabaptists who had been persecuted during the European Wars of Religion. Funk was a well known music teacher and composer, and thanks largely to him, Singers Glen is sometimes considered the birthplace of gospel music in the American South.〔(Hymnology: Singers Glen, VA; Genuine Church Music; Harmonia Sacra; Joseph Funk )〕
