My mother was from Pound, VA. I visited there but I was very young and don’t remember much. We did visit family in Cocks Hollow but I don’t know if that was in VA. too.
American’s tend to think that in order to have progress we have to tear down and rebuild. If the whole world thought like that we would not have the Roman and Greek ruins, Tower of London, the beautiful churches of Europe, etc.
Too bad, progress isn’t always a good thing. 😥
