I’m honored to have been chosen to serve as President of the Greater Fulton Civic Association and have high hopes for the future of our community. One of my priorities is to get to know my fellow Greater Fulton residents and make sure everyone is aware that the Civic Association exists and that it’s here to help bring people together and provide the resources the community needs. Hopefully, this outreach will also increase attendance at our bimonthly Civic Association meetings, which are a great opportunity to learn about what’s going on in our community, share our hopes and concerns, and fellowship with our neighbors. Another of my goals as President is transparency: listening to residents and actively addressing their feedback. My aim is to help Greater Fulton maintain clean and safe neighborhoods, develop and sustain a thriving business district, and come together for fun – be on the lookout for more details about Block Parties and Game Nights in Mike Madia early 2018!

DUTTON, M.A. DARA A. FRIEDBERG, M.S. JANUARY 2017 ABSTRACT ABSTRACT The results of the study revealed that the project area was in the vicinity of the earliest settled area of Rocketts Landing. Historic maps and documents indicate that early development would have been consigned primarily to the western portion of the project area. Gillies Creek flowsd south and east of the project area, and at times possibly within it. The tributary Bloody Run, now filled, bisected the project area. Development had occurred in the western portion of the land by the early nineteenth century in form of dwellings and a tobacco factory. Following the incredible success of the City Gas Works on Cary Street between 15th and 16th streets, the City purchased land in Rocketts Landing for the construction of a new plant. The plant began operations in 1856. The Civil War, multiple floods, and changes in manufactured gas technology necessitated multiple repairs and rebuildings of the Gas Works. Changes between the 1920s and 1950s created the more modern layout of the site. What had become known as Fulton Gas Works continued operations until 1972 from which time it has remained vacant.

If any ethnic group is referred to, it is almost in­ variably either the Germans, the Irish or the Jews, in spite of the fact that it is evident from even the most casual perusal of the Richmond city directory or the telephone directory that there are many city residents whose ancestors were not the traditional Anglo-Saxons, their slaves, or members of the three above mentioned groups.
