The Town of Troutville was established
in 1956 and is located
in Botetourt County, Virginia. In
1881, this area had no name. The railroad came through
and a station was built. There were three houses
then which were occupied by John, Jim and George
Trout - so the area was called Troutsville. It became
an important shipping center in the 1890's.
In 1895, Troutville was a thriving town with a very
active shipping point, good farming, busy canneries,
packing houses and factories. The
name of the town was later changed to Troutville.
