About
"As a matter of defining geographical boundaries, the area South of the James River where the Huguenots settled in 1700 was Henrico Co., Va. Later the area south of the James River became part of Goochland Co., Va. upon that county's formation in 1728. Then, in 1749, Cumberland Co., Va. was formed and the land area south of the James River that was the Huguenot Settlement was included. Finally, in 1777, Southam Parish of Cumberland Co., Va. was formed into a separate county and given the name of "Powhatan" which, today, includes the historical Huguenot Settlement."
Goochland County was founded in 1727 from Henrico. Counties formed from Goochland include Albemarle, Cumberland.
