More stars 'n bars from the Washington arms in Virginia Rendered by Chad Krouse, 2025 |
George Washington: first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countymen. Also, first to have his coat of arms changed up in virtually every way possible. However, the two coats of arms that I found online today are truly quite tasteful and fitting.

The County of Washington is located in the southwest area of Virginia with its seat being the City of Abingdon. According to the Washington County Historical Society, the county's board of supervisors officially adopted these arms--within a seal--on January 4, 1978.

The coat of arms of Washington County Virginia Chamber of Commerce Rendered by Chad Krouse, 2025 |
The Washington County Virginia Chamber of Commerce clearly followed in the Board of Supervisors' footsteps by adopting its differenced coat of arms and replacing red with blue. Simple. Is the color change sufficient enough to avoid infringing on the established Washington arms? I'll leave that answer to the reader.
I do appreciate, however, the intention to show unification of the county's chamber with the county itself. After all, it's good for business!
