Harry T. Peters Jr.
Harry T. Peters Jr. owned Windholme Farms in Orange, Va. He raised shorthorn cattle and greyhound dogs.听He was also a judge at shows of the Westminster Kennel Club. His interest in the then-developing Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine and the prospects for increased veterinary medical research to help producers reduce losses to animal diseases, along with the need to educate more large animal veterinarians, led to a donation after his 1981 death that established the clinic.听
