    1. [VALOUISA] Egypt in Louisa County
    2. James K Brandau
    3. About a year ago I queried this listserver for help in locating "little Egypt" in Louisa County. My interest stemmed from an old photograph taken "at Egypt." Many of you were kind enough to provide information on the old home site known as "little Egypt." However, new information recently surfaced that what I assumed to mean "little Egypt" was actually "Egypt Post Office." A native and long-time resident of the county positively identified my site as the same place once known as "Egypt Post Office." The same site appears on more current maps as Foster's Store. This fact is rather trivial, but a nugget that may be useful to others in interpreting other chance encounters with the word "Egypt" in association with Louisa County. Cheers! Ken J. K.
