Why Tabb, Virginia?

Posted by Lynnette Tully on Fri, Aug 30, 2019 @ 09:05 AM

paul-trienekens-9goYHROaqMo-unsplashWhy Tabb?

The much sought-after area of Tabb is known for its fantastic schools, sports teams and charming community, but very few know the story behind the land that is loved so much. One tract of land in particular, home of the new community Smith Farm Estates, tells a story rich in history of a pioneer before her time.

Mary Octavia Smith was born in 1845 and was married to Alexander Tabb in 1871. She bore 3 children and became a widow at a young age, leaving her to raise the children on her own. Looking for an opportunity to provide for her family, she applied to the Federal Government requesting for a post office to be placed in the community she lived in, Smithville. Tabb’s request was granted, and history was forever changed.

She became the first female Post Master for the state in 1893 and remained in office until 1910.  27 years before the women’s suffrage movement, this was no small feat. As a Post Master, one of the most coveted and respected positions in the Government, Tabb was a woman ahead of her time. Dedicated to taking care of her family, she converted her house into the post office and served people out of window on the front porch. The area once known as “Smithville” was later named “Tabb” as a nod to Ms. Tabb’s post office.

Located on the heart of what was once Tabb’s property, Smith Farm Estates is nestled in history.  Not only are these ½ acre+ lots highly desired due to location, but the deep historical roots of the land make it even more desirable.

Liz Moore and Associates is honored to represent Edgerton Contracting in this groundbreaking community! For more information on available lots, or for a tour, please contact Jenny Edgerton at (757) 592-3378.

Meet the Builder in Smith Farm Estates

Posted by Lynnette Tully on Thu, May 16, 2019 @ 11:18 AM

Stop by Gallina Grasso Italian Kitchen on May 22nd between 5:30-7:30 to meet Ricky Edgerton of Edgerton Contracting Inc., now building Smith Farm Estates, one of Tabb's newest communities.

MeetTheBuilder_SFE_email 

Edgerton Contracting was founded in Yorktown, Virginia in 1994. Before getting his contractor’s license, Ricky designed submarines and aircraft carriers, but seldom got to see his designs once they were built. After building his own house, Ricky discovered his passion for home construction and the fulfillment he received from seeing his design come to life in a practical, meaningful way. It’s fitting that the inspiration to start the business was constructing his own family’s home, as family is the cornerstone of Edgerton Contracting.

For more information on Smith Farm Estates, or to find out how you can reserve your lot today, email jennyedgerton@lizmoore.com
