Major Flavius Bowles arrived here from Pennsylvania around 1878 and settled for a time near Selkirk.  He established a building materials business, held a shared interest in a quarry near Stonewall and supplied some of the materials to build Government House, the residence of our present Lieutenant Governor.  He moved his family back to the US and settled near Leesburg, Virginia in 1892.  See further details on the Major Flavius Bowles page.
