Voices of Stafford

Preston’s grandparents migrated ‘back east’ from Colorado in 1911 for a change of pace and found a place along the Rappahannock on which they settled. Farming and wood sales provided income and Preston recalls times in an earlier Falmouth as well as changes along Warrenton Road between Rte.1 and I-95. He attended Stafford public schools, served in three branches of service, married a local young lady, worked elsewhere for a while in construction but now lives here on some of the original land acquired by his grandparents. He enjoys his family and his church work. (54 minutes)
