Occoquan is a town in Prince William County, Virginia. The population was 934 at the 2010 United States Census. The town is a suburb of Washington, D.C. and is neighboring Woodbridge. The current mayor is Earnest W. Porta Jr.
Occoquan is derived from an Algonquian Doeg Indian word, meaning “at the stop of the water”. Located upon the Occoquan River, Occoquan was long a site of native peoples’ habitation. Like the British colonists after them, they relied upon the river for transportation and trade, as with ease as fish. Early in the 1600s Capt. John Smith sailed and explored the Occoquan River.
In 1608, when the first European reached Northern Virginia, the Tauxenent tribe (also known by the English as the “Dogues”) had its main village at the mouth of the Occoquan River. This tribe was more closely associated with neighbors such as the Piscataways (located across the Potomac River in what is now Maryland) than the extra Algonquian-speaking tribes to the south. The local chief was called a Tayac, who was subservient to an “emperor” located in Prince Georges County.
By 1765, Anglo-American colonists had expected an industrial pact at Occoquan, with grist mills and tobacco warehouses. The Merchant’s Mill was the first automated grist mill in the nation. It operated for 175 years until destroyed by fire.
During the Civil War, the declare office passed letters and packages between North and South. River silting reduced ship traffic to Occoquan and done its days as a port, as did the shift in traffic to railroads.
