- Originally named Wynne's Falls, the village was renamed Danville by act of the Virginia Legislature on November 23, 1793. The name was derived from that of the Dan River, which was reportedly named for William Byrd, who visited the area in 1728, and supposing himself to be in the land of plenty, felt he had wandered "from Dan to Beersheba" (Danville Chamber of Commerce website, 2001)
