Virginia patent & proprietary Medicines

[AntiqueMeds]

I'm interested in doing a survey of known medicine bottles from Virginia.
It seems the main centers for medicines were Richmond, the tidewater area (norfolk, hampton, portsmouth, etc), western bigger towns like Roanoke and Staunton. So much of VA was very rural until the 20th century. I would think there should be some from older northern towns like Alexandria or Leesburg.
I'll post some of the ones i know of and hopefully others can add what they have or know of.
Thanks
