Pigg River
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Pigg River is a river in south-central Virginia in the United States. It is a tributary of the Roanoke River, which flows to the Atlantic Ocean via Albemarle Sound.
The Pigg River rises on Fivemile Mountain in western Franklin County and flows generally eastwardly through Franklin and Pittsylvania Counties, past the town of Rocky Mount.[1] It joins the Roanoke River from the south (along a section of the Roanoke often known locally as the Staunton River)[2] as part of the Leesville Reservoir, which is formed by a dam on the Roanoke.
