Elliott Knob; mountain peak, Augusta

This mountain has been locally known for

ers, in honor of Prof. W. B. Rogers, formerly the 
State geologist of Virginia, and a pioneer in 
the study of the geology of that State. This 
decision is based on the grounds, first, that the 
name Elliott Knob is well established, and, 
second, that a mountain peak in Virginia near 
the North Carolina line has already been 
named in honor of Professor Rogers.
