Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On March 5, 2007, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Fauquier Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company"), upon the recommendation of its Board Governance and Nominating Committee, appointed P. Kurt Rodgers and Sterling T. Strange, III to the Board. Messrs. Rodgers and Strange were appointed as Class II Directors to serve until the Company’s 2007 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting"). These appointments fill vacancies that will be created by the expiration of other directors' terms.

At this time, Messrs. Rodgers and Strange have not been appointed to serve on any committees of the Board.

There are no arrangements or understandings between either Mr. Rodgers or Mr. Strange and any other persons pursuant to which either Mr. Rodgers or Mr. Strange was selected as a director. There have been no transactions since January 1, 2006, and there is no currently proposed transaction, in which the Company was or is to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which either Mr. Rodgers or Mr. Strange had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Each of Messrs. Rodgers and Strange will receive compensation for his Board service consistent with the compensation paid to non-employee members of the Board, as described in the Company’s 2006 proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 12, 2006.

The Company issued a press release on March 5, 2007 announcing the appointment of Messrs. Rodgers and Strange to the Board, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
