Laurel Park

A tract housing estate in the Laurel region Northwestern Henrico County Virginia, part of the Richmond area. Many of the homes were built in the late 1950's during "white flight" into the suburbs, the oldest known houses built in 1957. There's one main floor plan of 3 bed ranchers, many have had extensions added. Another, a split level is found on Stockbridge Dr and Royerton Dr., also ca. 1957. There are additional ranchers, of another floor plan with dens, built ca. the late 1960's. Shecardee used to offer access to the adjacent Laurel Park Shopping Center, but that entry had potholes, was gated off but still allowing pedestrian access. Laurel Pine Dr was built later, presumably the early 1970's, withore choices of floor plans, with just a few ranchers. most of its houses are bi and tri levels. There were a few newer houses built on that street ca

2010's. Also a couple2010's two storey homes were built on Paragon Dr where used to be a pool. Many of the older homes began falling into disrepair at some point, but more recently, many formerly run down houses have been restored, so it's a very nice neighbourhood.
There were two clans in particular, who have had extended relatives in multiple houses. Both have a common descendant, Carlton Piercey b. 1983. Shaw-Piercey, maternal grandparents and extended relatives, and Whited, paternal grandparents and extended relatives. There are no more known members of either clan living there since 2019-2020.
