Remembering Herndon's History: The Road Sirs Car Club

HERNDON, VA — Car clubs were popular in Virginia in the 1950s and 1960s. They gave young men a strong sense of identity and the opportunity to meet and associate with other car enthusiasts in their surrounding communities. With their car ownership — and through the use of plaques, jackets, patches, and license plate holders ' the members would proudly display their car club affiliation.
Fairfax and Vienna were known to have car clubs. The Town of Herndon was no exception. The club in Herndon was a club called the Road Sirs. That club's heyday was between the mid-1950s and the mid-1960s.

Remembering Herndon's History: Follylick Farm

Remembering Herndon's History: Follylick Farm

HERNDON, VA — One of the last working farms within the Herndon area was Follylick Farm, owned by the Young family. The farm consisted of 99 acres of land on the north edge of town, in what is now considered part of the Kingston Chase subdivision. The farm would be operated by Freeland G. Young, Sr. (1895-1980), and later by his youngest son, Freeland Young, Jr. (1930-2016).
In the mid-1800s, this land was part of Joseph Orrison’s farm. Orrison owned several hundred acres that generally stretched from the Washington and Old Dominion Railroad on the south, and from Crestview Drive and Dranesville Road on its west and east, respectively. The Orrison’s land area was comprised of what now includes parts of the Herndon Centennial Golf Course, and the Kingston Chase, Hiddenbrook and Barker Hill subdivisions. After Orrison died, he willed his land to his descendants. Parts of the Orrison land were sold over the course of years.
