The Fairfax Independent Company was an independent militia established by George Mason on September 21, 1774.  When Virginia’s Royal Governor dissolved the House of Burgesses in May 1774, the assembly was denied the chance to renew the militia law, which had expired in late 1773.  Mason convinced fellow gentlemen and freeholders in Fairfax County to adopt a resolution to "form ourselves into a Company, not exceeding one hundred Men, by the Name of The Fairfax Independent Company of Volunteers."
