On November 17, 1974, about a month after the Henrico County Bicentennial Commission came into being, Mrs. Jean Nelson Gibbons was invited to a meeting of the Hanover County Historical Society by her counterpart, Dr. Bruce English, chairman of the Hanover County Bicentennial Committee. Mrs. Gibbons was so impressed with the Hanover Society that she determined to establish a historical society in Henrico County. When Mrs. Arie Brandon met with Mrs. Gibbons concerning the approval of a Varina Women’s Club’s Bicentennial Project, Mrs. Gibbons mentioned to Mrs. Brandon the need for a historical society in Henrico County. Mrs. Gibbons met also with Mrs. Louise Foley who offered her help. Three days later Mrs. Brandon offered the help of the entire Varina Women’s Club which had voted to give $50 for an initial mailing to interested citizens.
