Just a 20-minute ferry ride from the place of the first permanent
English settlement at Jamestown on the southern banks of the James
River begins 306 square miles of ravines and level lands, fresh
water streams and creeks, and scenic views of Virginia's longest
river. Surry was formed in 1652 and was most likely named by early
colonists in honor of the English county of Surrey and in
recognition of its location, as it lay across the Thames from
London, as did Surry from Jamestown. For more than 350 years, Surry
has depended on an agriculture economy and small businesses that
developed around the meat processing industry, lumber harvesting,
and farming. Residents, state officials, and now this photographic
collection help to preserve this wonderful slice of American
history.
