In honor and celebration of our nation’s 250th birthday, we invite you to experience what life was like in the period of the American Revolution (1765 – 1783).


The Fincastle Company is a group of dedicated living historians who portray both military and civilian roles during the time of the American War of Independence. They conduct extensive research and documentation on all the clothing and equipment used by them in order to be as accurate to the period as possible. They specifically portray the Fincastle/Montgomery County Militia which was an actual unit from Southwestern Virginia that served in the American Revolution.

About the Friends of Lucy Breckinridge: Our mission and purpose: to acquire historical knowledge and use this knowledge to educate the public; to help our veterans; to provide cleaning services for headstones so our ancestors are honored; to participate in memorial services for Civil War ancestors; and lastly, to support the Fincastle Rifles.
