2. Newbern, Virginia.
From 1839 until the courthouse burned in 1892, Newbern was the county seat of Pulaski County. A large share of the early settlers being natives of Switzerland caused the name Newbern, after Bern, Switzerland, to be selected. Adam Hance began the town of Newbern in 1810, where the Wilderness Road or "Great road" passed directly through his grant of 1,400 acres.(Submitted on November 7, 2022, by Cosmos Mariner of Cape Canaveral, Florida.)
