Insignificant locality in Fairfax County, Virginia. WP:BEFORE yields only SEO junk and results for the eponymous road. Waddles 🗩 🖉 02:01, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Nothing found except passing mentions of a Browns Mill Junction; nothing suggesting this was a community. Whatever this was, it's been bulldozed under suburban sprawl, so it doesn't make much sense to talk about it in the present tense. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 12:05, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This history of mills in Fairfax County in DC describes the milling activities there. There was a general store next to the mill and the miller owned a large farm, but evidence of an actual community in the immediate vicinity is conspicuous by its absence. It's probably just a name conferred on the subdivision when the area suburbanized and hence transferred to the topo map. Choess (talk) 15:33, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
