Have heard it was the birthplace of J.R. Anderson, Confederate general and head of Tredegar Ironworks. It was also later home to my ancestor, Isaac Henkle, and his family from ca. 1850-1875. Any info would be appreciated. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
