The Loudoun County Sheriff's Office is pleased to celebrate Loudoun County's 250th Anniversary with a series of photographs contrasting the past with the present.  

The black and white images on this page are from the late 1950s and early 1960s, while the color photos were taken recently. We also have a series of badges and patches worn by Sheriff's Office personnel through the years.
