Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Occoquan is a town in Prince William County in the U.S. state of Virginia. The population was 759 at the 2000 census. The town is a suburb of Washington, D.C. and is adjacent to Woodbridge. The current Mayor is Earnest "Earnie" Porta, who was first elected in 2006, and won re-election in 2008. Occoquan is derived from a Dogue Indian word meaning "at the end of the water". Located on the Occoquan River, Occoquan was a natural site for water-borne commerce. By 1765, it flourished as an industrial settlement with grist mills and tobacco warehouses. The Merchant''s Mill was the first automated grist mill in the nation. It operated for 175 years until destroyed by fire. During the Civil War, the post office passed letters and packages between North and South. Although fire and river silting have caused hardships for Occoquan, the town has survived and thrived. Today, it is a restored artist''s community town with shops, outdoor dining, ghost walks, a town boat dock and more.
