Biographical/Historical note Madeleine Lindsey Green was born in 1943 and lived in Alexandria, Virginia throughout her life. She worked for the federal government, serving 24 years with the Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Water Monitoring, though her passion was for family and history, which led her to the hobby of genealogy. Madeline frequented the Library of Congress, the Orange County Virginia African-American Historical Society, and the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in New York. Madeline’s research led to her ancestors’ names being included and engraved on the Spirit of Freedom, African-American Civil War Memorial in Washington, D.C. She was also responsible for her ancestor’s names being included and read off at the annual Slave Memorial Wreath Laying Ceremony at George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate. She died in Washington, D.C. in 2012.

Families include Green's own relatives, the Quander family, whose lineage can be traced to Africans in America during the eighteenth century. Other familes Green researched include the McIntosh, Whistle, Ross, Madella, and Taylor families. Audiovisual materials include videotapes of a History Channel recording on Union Soldiers for the McIntosh family, as well as other family photographs and videos from the McIntosh family.

But her delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth she meditate day and night. And she shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in its season; her leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever she doeth shall prosper. Roberta Hildagard Quander was born on February 10, 1924 to Robert H. Quander and Sadie Chinn Quander. Her parents had been married at Alfred Street in February 1911 by Rev. Alexander Truatt.

We have included items of particular interest to Mount Vernon residents. For additional information, please go to the County’s Board Agenda and Meeting Schedule section on the County’swebpage. You may listen to highlights from the Board meeting on your computer or listendirectly on iTunes. Subscribe to the podcast, or choose a program and listenin. A MESSAGE FROM SUPERVISOR STORCK Today is a great day to be a Mount Vernon District resident,and before you scroll any further, I'd like to share with you two excitingdevelopments that occurred at the July 25th Board of Supervisors meeting. Novus Kings Crossing, a proposal to redevelop a 5.29-acre site in the Penn Daw Community Business Center, was unanimously approved by the Board. The developer will construct a high- quality, mixed-use multi-family building with 350 units and unique onsite park amenities. This new development with Cafritz Interests and Novus Residences creates a unique opportunity to enhance revitalization on Richmond Highway, bring development partners to our corridor, and create an economic investment in our community. The project aligns closely with our goals of Embark Richmond Highway, which calls for increased density around the Community Business Centers to support Bus Rapid Transit and shows that the Richmond Highway corridor is pivoting to the 21st century. Also, after working closely with county staff over the past few months, I was pleased to announce that Fairfax County acquired 2.32 acres of land located at 6318 Quander Road in the Mount Vernon District.

  • MS 0766 Loretta Carter Hanes Collection, 1749-2005
    801 K Street NW Washington, D.C. 20001 www.DCHistory.org SPECIAL COLLECTIONS FINDING AID Title: MS 0766 Loretta Carter Hanes collection, 1749-2005 Processor: Marianne Gill Processed Date: 2014; additional series, objects, and textiles remain in the processing queue as of 2017 [Finding Aid last updated March 2017] Loretta Carter Hanes (1926-2016), a native Washingtonian, was a member of the Carter and Quander families. She was a descendent of enslaved people who lived and worked at George Washington’s Mount Vernon Estate, and she was a dedicated volunteer to the school children of Washington, D.C. She is perhaps best recognized for her contributions to the Reading is Fundamental (RIF) program and the establishment of Emancipation Day as a municipal holiday in Washington, D.C. Born in 1926 in Washington, D.C., Loretta often accompanied her mother to her part time job as a cook at Stoddard Baptist Home. There she listened to the residents’ stories, including advice from a 102-year-old former slave who always talked about the need of everyone to help others by “bringing others across the bridge.” After graduating from Armstrong High School and Miner Teacher’s College, Loretta and her husband Wesley opened their home to tutor the neighborhood youth. Eventually a club was formed with 30 members who were taken on field trips to parks in the city for ball games. Reading is Fundamental, a program established November 1, 1966 at the urging of Mrs. Margaret McNamara, is a national program to provide school children with their own books. With offices in the Smithsonian Institution, and the financial support of foundation grants and industry contributions, RIF, by 1986, had 3100 projects in all 50 states and three territories.
