Small rural town 45 miles northeast of Richmond, Virginia. The town is on the banks of the Rappahannock river. The word Tappahannock is Native American for ''land on the rising and falling water''. First discovered by Captain John Smith who named the town but was fiercely driven back to his ship by the hostile tribe.
