Leesville, Virginia

The town used to be a thriving regional hub in the late 19h century, having its own train station, post office, stores, and even a hotel. Its heyday was short-lived however as the automobile largely replaced train travel and the rail stop was relocated to "Lynch's", becoming Lynch Station, and then later relocated to Altavista, Virginia.

Mount Airy was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.^[2]

Leesville was the birthplace of baseball player Cloy Mattox.^[3]
