<PRE>
I, George R. Sisson III, do hereby constitute and appoint Jason E. Long, Matthew
P.
Dolci, and Matthew B. Guth, my true and lawful attorneys-in-fact, each of whom
acting singly is hereby authorized, for me and in my name and on my behalf as a
director, officer and/or shareholder of C&F Financial Corporation, to (i)
prepare, execute in my name and on my behalf, and submit to the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a Form ID, including any necessary
amendments thereto, and any other documents necessary or appropriate to obtain
or update codes and passwords enabling me to make electronic filings with the
SEC of reports required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
or any rule or regulation of the SEC in respect thereof ("Section 16"); and (ii)
prepare, execute and file any and all forms, instruments or documents, including
any necessary amendments thereto, as such attorneys or attorney deems necessary
or advisable to enable me to comply with Section 16.

I do hereby ratify and confirm all acts my said attorneys shall do or cause to
be done by virtue hereof. I acknowledge that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact,
serving in such capacity at my request, are not assuming, nor is C&F Financial
Corporation assuming, any of my responsibilities to comply with Section 16.

This power of attorney shall remain in full force and effect until it is revoked
by the undersigned in a signed writing delivered to each such attorney-in-fact
or the undersigned is no longer required to comply with Section 16, whichever
occurs first.

WITNESS the execution hereof this 15th day of October, 2019.

                                         /s/ George R Sisson III
