Patrick Henry was born May 29, 1736 just a few miles from Antique Village in Studley. He spent his youth in rural Hanover, bartended at Hanover Tavern, married the tavern owner's daughter Sarah Shelton, and became a lawyer, practicing at Hanover Courthouse (built 1735) across the road from the tavern. With his defense of the people in the "Parsons' Cause" Case in 1763, at Hanover Courthouse, he became known beyond the boundaries of Hanover County as a great orator and one who was willing to challenge the King of England. By the time of his "Give me Liberty or Death" speech in Richmond (1775), he was on the verge of being recognized as "The Orator of the Revolution." Antique Village, with merchandise from fifty dealers, is the region's oldest antiques and collectibles mall (est. 1971).
