Dr. William Cabell of Warminster, England immigrated to Virginia about 1726, and was the first Englishman to enter, then wild mountain region west of the Rockfish River for the purpose of locating lands for settlement. At one point, he had land grants for over 40,000 acres (160 km2), among them an area at the mouth of the Swan Creek on the James River, which he named "Warminster", after his homeplace in England. This area is now known as Wingina, and is located just off of Cabell road and route 604, a few miles down from route 56 (James River road) in Wingina, Nelson, Virginia.
