ウィリアム・マホーン
The town was the boyhood home of Confederate Major General William Mahone, whose father Fielding Mahone ran a local tavern. Union General George H. Thomas, "Rock of Chickamauga", and a native of Southampton County, likely visited his uncle James Rochelle here. Rochelle was clerk of court for Southampton County, and lived three houses from Mahone's Tavern.
