Many people often ask what part of Northern Virginia we are located in. The answer is we are not in Virginia. Both Bryan and Ray were born and raised in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Later we moved to New Mexico and now reside in California. We keep ending up in the same state mostly by coincidence. We are however both members of the Free State Project and pledge to move to New Hampshire. This brings us around to the story of why we call our show the North Virginia Patriots. The great state of New Hampshire was first named North Virginia in 1623. "Live Free or Die"!

A Brief History of New Hampshire
Did you know New Hampshire was first named North Virignia, and it was
once under the jurisdiction of Massachusetts? Read about the history of
New Hampshire!
Early historians record that in 1623, under the authority of an English
land-grant, Captain John Mason, in conjunction with several others, sent
David Thomson, a Scotsman, and Edward and Thomas Hilton, fish-merchants
of London, with a number of other people in two divisions to establish a
fishing colony in what is now New Hampshire, at the mouth of the
Piscataqua River.
One of these divisions, under Thomson, settled near the rivers mouth at
a place they called Little Harbor or "Pannaway," now the town of Rye,
where they erected salt-drying fish racks and a "factory" or stone
house. The other division under the Hilton brothers set up their fishing
stages on a neck of land eight miles above, which they called Northam,
afterwards named Dover.
Nine years before that Captain John Smith of England and later of
Virginia, sailing along the New England coast and inspired by the charm
of our summer shores and the solitude of our countrysides, wrote back to
his countrymen that:
"Here should be no landlords to rack us with high rents, or extorted
fines to consume us. Here every man may be a master of his own labor and
land in a short time. The sea there is the strangest pond I ever saw.
What sport doth yield a more pleasant content and less hurt or charge
than angling with a hook, and crossing the sweet air from isle to isle
over the silent streams of a calm sea?"
Thus the settlement of New Hampshire did not happen because those who
came here were persecuted out of England. The occasion, which is one of
the great events in the annals of the English people, was one planned
with much care and earnestness by the English crown and the English
parliament. Here James the first began a colonization project which not
only provided ships and provisions, but free land bestowed with but one
important condition, that it remain always subject to English
sovereignty.
So it remained until the "War of the Revolution." Smith first named it
"North Virginia" but King James later revised this into "New England."
To the map was added the name Portsmouth, taken from the English town
where Captain John Mason was commander of the fort, and the name New
Hampshire is that of his own English county of Hampshire.
Captain Mason died in 1635, just before his proposed trip to the new
country which he never saw. He had invested more than twenty-two
thousand pounds in clearing the land, building houses, and preparing for
its defense, - a considerable fortune for those days. By then Dover and
Portsmouth had expanded into Hampton and Exeter, and its income from
fishing was increased by that from trade in furs and timber.
