Undera previous numbering system, SR 207 was known asState Route 613 from 1929-1933. This SR 613 initially ran only from US 1 at Carmel Church to theMattaponi River but, in 1930-31, was extended east to the current US 301 Business and SR 2 intersection in Bowling Green. The route wasrenumbered in 1933 as SR 207, which itself had been a previous designation of part of what is nowSR 24 nearRoanoke. In addition to the current path of SR 207, the 1933 route included what is nowSR 639 inCaroline County fromChilesburg toLadysmith but this was renumbered asSR 229 by 1937.

Part of this route had beenSR 229 from 1933. In 1941, this new section became part of US 301 which it remains today[update].[3]
