Index to the Virginia Cavalcade INDEX TO THE VIRGINIA CAVALCADE compiled by Rachel Marks and Lois Raymond 1992-2008 Introduction Compiled by two John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Library volunteers over a number of years, this index includes articles and illustrations published in volumes 1-51 of the Virginia Cavalcade a quarterly published by the Library of Virginia, 1951-2002. Volume numbers are underlined, followed by the quarterly number, in parentheses, followed by pages. Beginning with Volume 24, pages were numbered consecutively throughout each volume, so quarterly numbers have been omitted. Here are examples: 16 (2):13-34 indicates Volume 16, Autumn number, and page numbers. 27 :154-157 indicates Volume and page numbers. The following symbols have been used: (M) for map within the pages given. (D) copy of document within pages given. * artistic production or photograph of person, place, or thing within pages given. Almost all articles have illustrations of some type, but not all are indexed. Unfortunately, Volume 18 includes a Number 5, which should be Volume 19, No. 1. This index includes material for that number under 18 (5) and there is no reference to 19 (1). (In the John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Library that number may be found in either Vol. 18 or Vol. 19.) Items about Virginia government appear under two headings: "Virginia , Colony," and Virginia, Commonwealth." Information about entries indicated with ========== may be found in the card file in Special Collections. 2 A Aaron, Hank, baseball player, 48 :109 Abbey, R.A., artist "The singing seats of an old-time country church," 6(2):16* Abbot, Henry L., Capt., mapmaker, 48 :30 Jacob, educator, "The Teacher," 49 :136,137 William Richardson, educator, 1(3):17 Abb's Valley massacre, Tazewell Co., 1786, 2(1):16,19* Abercromby, Robert, Continental officer, 31 :65 Aberdeem Academy, 29 :102,104,106 Abingdon, town, 25 :80,85* Barter Theater, 10 (1):4,10* Highlands Festival, 10 (1):10 Abingdon Episcopal Church, 19 (3):1,6*; 20 (2):19*; 32 :171 Abingdon House, antiques store, 45 :107 Abingdon Monument, 12 (2):10* Abraham, Samuel F., Va. disabled soldier, 47 :15,20 Abrams, Joseph, Richmond free black, 46 :120,124 Abshire, Rev.

    Vol. 3 No. 1.1 _____ ________________________________ _ __ January 2006 th Return to the Cow Pens! 225 Backyard Archaeology – ARCHH Up! The Archaeological Reconnaissance and Computerization of Hobkirk’s Hill (ARCHH) project has begun initial field operations on this built-over, urban battlefield in Camden, South Carolina. We are using the professional-amateur cooperative archaeology model, loosely based upon the successful BRAVO organization of New Jersey. We have identified an initial survey area and will only test properties within this initial survey area until we demonstrate artifact recoveries to any boundary. Metal detectorist director John Allison believes that this is at least two years' work. Since the battlefield is in well-landscaped yards and there are dozens of homeowners, we are only surveying areas with landowner permission and we will not be able to cover 100% of the land in the survey area. We have a neighborhood meeting planned to explain the archaeological survey project to the landowners. SCAR will provide project handouts and offer a walking battlefield tour for William T. Ranney’s masterpiece, painted in 1845, showing Hobkirk Hill neighbors and anyone else who wants to attend on the final cavalry hand-to-hand combat at Cowpens, hangs Sunday, January 29, 2006 at 3 pm. [Continued on p. 17.] in the South Carolina State House lobby. Most modern living historians believe that Ranney depicted the uniforms quite inaccurately. Lt. Col. Banastre Tarleton’s British Legion cavalry is thought to have been clothed in green tunics and Lt. Col. William Washington’s cavalry in white. The story of Washington’s trumpeter or waiter [Ball, Collin, Collins] shooting a legionnaire just in time as Washington’s sword broke is also not well substantiated or that he was a black youth as depicted.

  • Women's History Is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating in Communities
    Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook Prepared by The President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History “Just think of the ideas, the inventions, the social movements that have so dramatically altered our society. Now, many of those movements and ideas we can trace to our own founding, our founding documents: the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. And we can then follow those ideas as they move toward Seneca Falls, where 150 years ago, women struggled to articulate what their rights should be. From women’s struggle to gain the right to vote to gaining the access that we needed in the halls of academia, to pursuing the jobs and business opportunities we were qualified for, to competing on the field of sports, we have seen many breathtaking changes. Whether we know the names of the women who have done these acts because they stand in history, or we see them in the television or the newspaper coverage, we know that for everyone whose name we know there are countless women who are engaged every day in the ordinary, but remarkable, acts of citizenship.” —- Hillary Rodham Clinton, March 15, 1999 Women’s History is Everywhere: 10 Ideas for Celebrating In Communities A How-To Community Handbook prepared by the President’s Commission on the Celebration of Women in American History Commission Co-Chairs: Ann Lewis and Beth Newburger Commission Members: Dr. Johnnetta B.
