The following site is invaluable. It provides both defunct places and current ones. You can choose several different maps. There are several results with the name London in it but none by itself in Virginia. Don't confuse it with Loudoun County which is just west of Fairfax County in N. VA. http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnispublic (Use this exact name if you save it. Other addresses with a reference extension won't work.) If the place you are really looking for is in WV now in the county you indicated, then I would check in the county it is in to see if I could determine when it was founded.
