History of Fancy Gap

A Special Thanks to Ron Hall for his contribution

The history of Fancy Gap is inextricably linked to roadways since it has long been a major passageway between Western North Carolina and Southwestern Virginia. The original settlement, reportedly called “Foggy Camp” by the Indians, was actually located a bit further to the west than it is today.
