Greene County (Va.) Circuit Court.

Greene County was named for Nathanael Greene, commanding general of the Continental army in the South during part of the Revolutionary War. It was formed from Orange County in 1838. The county seat is Stanardsville.

Greene County (Va.) Ground Observer Corps was part of the Air Warning System established by the War Department during World II as a defense against a German air attack. The Air Warning system set up observation posts along the East Coast manned by civilian volunteers who were trained to identify enemy airplanes. The observers were ordered to report by telephone all planes they spotted to the Army Filter Center. Many observation posts, including the Greene County post, were located at American Legion Posts. Each post was to have a chief observer, two assistant chief observers, and as many observers as he or she needed or could get so the post could be manned on a continuous 24 hour basis.
