Rocketts Voting Precinct House
moved to show grounds
The Brooking Family of Sandy Hook in Goochland County
has placed on permanent loan with Field Day of the Past, the Rocketts Voting Precinct House. The house was originally built
around 1890 and repairs were made to it in the 1930s. This structure was used as a voting place until the early 1960s. Inside,
written on some of the walls, are the names of some of the voters who voted here over the decades. Come out and see this piece
of history.
