  • By Eleanor Lee Templeman Reprinted from the Booklet Prepared for the Visit of the Virginia State Legislators to Northern Virginia, January 1981
    THE HERITAGE OF NORTHERN VIRGINIA By Eleanor Lee Templeman Reprinted from the booklet prepared for the visit of the Virginia State Legislators to Northern Virginia, January 1981. The documented history of Northern Virginia goes back to John Smith's written description of his exploration of the Potomac in 1608 that took him to Little Falls, the head of Tidewater at the upper boundary of Arlington Coun­ ty. Successive charters issued to the Virginia Company in 1609 and 1612 granted jurisdiction over all territory lying 200 miles north and south of Point Comfort, "all that space and circuit of land lying from the seacoast of the precinct aforesaid, up into the land throughout from sea to sea, west and northwest." The third charter of 1612 included Bermuda. The first limitations upon the extent of the "Kingdom of Virginia," as it was referred to by King Charles I, came in 1632 when he granted Lord Baltimore a proprietorship over the part that became Maryland. The northeastern portion of Virginia included one of America's greatest land grants, the Northern Neck Proprietary of approximately six million acres. In 1649, King Charles II, a refugee in France because of the English Civil War, granted to seven loyal followers all the land between the Potomac and Rap­ pahannock Rivers. (Although the term, "Northern Neck" is usually applied to . that portion south of Fredericksburg, the largest portion is in Northern Virginia.) Charles II, then in command of the British Navy, was about to launch an attack to recover the English throne. His power, however, was nullified by Cromwell's decisive victory at Worcester in 1650.

    Resource Study & Environmental Assessment WASHINGTON–ROCHAMBEAU REVOLUTIONARY ROUTE Northeast and National Capital Regions National Park Service—U.S. Department of the Interior October 2006 ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT This document is the Resource Study and Environmental Assessment (study/EA) for the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route. It describes the National Park Service’s preferred approach to preserving and interpreting route resources and one other alternative. The evaluation of potential environmental impacts that may result from imple- mentation of these alternatives is integrated in this document. This study/EA is available for public review for a period of 30 days. During the review period, the National Park Service is accepting comments from interested parties via the Planning, Environment and Public Comment website http://parkplanning.nps.gov/, at public meetings which may be held, and at the address below. At the end of the re- view period, the National Park Service will carefully review all comments and determine whether any changes should be made to the report. No sooner than thirty (30) days from the end of the review period, the National Park Service will prepare and publish a finding of no significant impact (FONSI) to explain which alternative has been selected, and why it will not have any significant environmental impacts. A summary of responses to public comments will be prepared. Factual corrections or additional material submitted by commentators that do not affect the alternative may be incorporated in errata sheets and attached to the study/EA. The study/EA and FONSI will be transmitted to the Secretary of the Interior who will make a recommendation to Congress.

The brick is laid in Flemish bond with random glazed headers, and has been entirely repointed. Rubbed brick marks the jambs and arches of all the windows. The first floor windows feature flat lintels, while those of the second are arched. The distinguishing feature of Pohick's exterior is its especially fine stonework which includes the large quoins at all four corners and the three doorways. Each of the two western doorways features a rusticated surround framed by Ionic pilasters which support a pediment with pulvinated frieze. The south doorway (the main entrance) is similarly treated but has a three-part keystone where the others have only a single stone for the keystone. I Pohick's exterior has undergone several restorations, and much of the fabric, such as the window sills and portions of the roof and cornice, have been renewed. Inside, only the cornice and a single baluster from the chancel rail are original. The remainder of the interior furnishings are a conjectural restoration installed, for the most part, between the years 1901-1916. Despite the fact that the church has two tiers of windows, there was no gallery in colonial times.

Some of the earliest engagements of the Civil War took place in Fairfax County. When John Quincy Marr died in a skirmish at Fairfax Court House on June 1, 1861, he became the first Confederate officer killed in the war. A couple of miles away and just four days earlier, Peyton Anderson was the first Confederate soldier to shed his blood for the Confederacy when he was wounded near today’s Lee Highway and Blake Lane. Three days before the Battle of First Manassas/Bull Run, over 35,000 Union troops marched through Fairfax County on their way to the first bloody battle of the war. The first heavy fighting occurred at Blackburn’s Ford, on the western edge of the county. John Q.
