'The residence stands amidst forty-four acres of expansive lawns and ~sand is reached by a long circular drive from the south. 'The residence, designed by the architect Stanhope Johnson in the Georgian Revival style, was built between 1931 and 1933 and is in excellent ,condition. It consists of a t~and-one-half-story, five-bay brick center section with a steeply pitched hipped roof flanked by one-and-one-half-story, three-bay, gable-roofed wings placed perpendicular to the main section and connected to it by one-and-one-half story hyphens. 'The house is further extended at either end by a brick arcade connected to a one-and-one-half, five-bay, gable-roofed garage at the east end and an identical arcade connected to a brick pergola with conical roof on the west. 'The interior features a center-hall plan with the living rooms on the first floor connected by a sweeping staircase to the bedrooms on the second floor. 'The interior is remarkable for the elaborate ~work and rich architectural details; the design of each room is directly derived from such notable Georgian plantation houses as Stratford Hall, Westover, York Hall,and Shirley. ARCHITECTI,'RAL DESCRIPTION: Gallison Hall is situated in Farmington, approximately three miles west of Charlottesville. 'The residence stands amidst forty-four acres of expansive lawns and ~sand is reached by a long circular driveway from the south. Gallison Hall, designed by the architect Stanhope Johnson in the Georgian Revival style, albeit with some eclectic touches, was built between 1931 and 1933 and is in excellent and unaltered condition. It consists of a two-and-one-half-story, five-bay, brick center sectior with a steeply pitched hipped roof flanked by one-and-one-half-story, three-bay, gable-roof, wings placed perpendicular to the center section and connected to the center section by one­ and-one-half-story hyphens. 'The house is laid in Flemish bond with glazed headers with a molded water table on all four facades. Rubbed jack arches are above both first- and second­ story windows. The house is further extended at either end by a seven-bay brick arcade connected to a one-and-one­ half-story two-bay gable-roofed garage on the east and an identical arcade connected to an octagonal brick gazebo on the west. Two two-story polygonal window bays, articulated by pilasters and paneling, flank the chimney on the west fa~de of the west wing.

Sut+fARY STATEMENI' OF SIGNIFICANCE: Callison Hall is an outstanding example of the Georgian Revival style and is one of the largest residences built in this style in Virginia. Designed by architect Stanhope Johnson between 1931 and 1933, Callison Hall also reflects the eclectic tastes of its first owners Mr. and Mrs. Julio Suarez-Galban, who wished to include the best features of several famou colonial Virginia planatation houses, including Westover, Stratford Hall, and even Bacon's Castle. Set among its English gardens designed by Charles F. Gillette, Callison Hall epitomizes the Georgian Revival country house ideal. In addition, the attention to traditi, crafted moldings and brickwork reflected the then-current scholarly interest in the rester, of colonial Williamsturg. Gallison Hall represents Johnson's \o.Urk at its most mature stage and was considered by the architect to be his finest commission from this pericxi. HISTORY AND SUPPORT: Callison Hall stands on land patented to Michael Holland in 1744.1 1he eighteenth-century plantation house on this property, later known as Farmington, was altered along designs supplied by 1homas Jefferson in 1802. Its last private owners were the Wood family who sole in 1927 to form the nucleus2of the Farmington Country Club development. The farm was sub­ divided into building lots. In 1929 a forty-four-acre parcel was purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Julio Suarez-Galban, both ~f whom had attended the University of Virginia and decided to remain in Charlottesville. In 1930 the Galbans commissioned the architect Stanhope Johnson, of Lynchburg, Virginia, tc design their residence. He, along with the landscape architect Charles Gillette, w0rked clc with the Galbans throughout the initial design p4ocess. Work commenced in 1931 and was completed in 1933 at a reputed cost of $145,000. The name Gallison Hall was derived from t combination of G(alban) and Allison, Mrs. Galban's mother's maiden name. Johnson's drawings, as well as other project doc11mentation is in the collection of the Jones Memorial Library in Lynchburg. Ii] See continuation sheet 9.

  • Hunt Club 23
    Charles City County Business Directory County Guide Compiled September 1998 By: Charles City County Department of Planning January 2016 **Please contact the Department of Planning to report any incorrect information** Introduction Charles City County is a quiet, rural haven located in the east-central portion of the Commonwealth of Virginia. In 1634, the colonial General Assembly met at Jamestown and divided the Virginia Colony into eight shires, similar to those in England. These were Accomack, Charles River, Henrico, Elizabeth City, James City, Warwick River, Warrosquyoake and Charles City. The Charles City shire was named for the English King's son, Charles, who later became King Charles I. When first established, Charles City comprised a large area on both sides of the James River, but gradually it lost land area to the formation of other counties. Settlement in Charles City County began as early as 1613. Many of the famous estates were patented in these early years. Charles Carter built Shirley Plantation about 1769. It is believed to be the first Virginia plantation. Today the Carter family still owns Shirley Plantation. Benjamin Harrison, IV, built the Berkeley Plantation mansion in 1726. Berkeley was the birthplace of Benjamin Harrison, V, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and Governor of Virginia. Berkeley was also the home of William Henry Harrison, the ninth President of the United States. John Tyler, tenth President of the United States, purchased Sherwood Forest in 1842. William Byrd, III, a notable Virginia planter, author, and colonial official constructed Westover Plantation about 1730. Evelynton Plantation was originally part of William Byrd's expansive Westover Plantation.

  • Early History of Thoroughbred Horses in Virginia (1730-1865)
    Early History of Thoroughbred Horses in Virginia (1730-1865) Old Capitol at Williamsburg with Guests shown on Horseback and in a Horse-drawn Carriage Virginia History Series #11-08 © 2008 First Horse Races in North America/Virginia (1665/1674) The first race-course in North America was built on the Salisbury Plains (now known as the Hempstead Plains) of Long Island, New York in 1665. The present site of Belmont Park is on the Western edge of the Hempstead Plains. In 1665, the first horse racing meet in North America was held at this race-course called “Newmarket” after the famous track in England. These early races were match events between two or three horses and were run in heats at a distance of 3 or 4 miles; a horse had to complete in at least two heats to be judged the winner. By the mid-18th century, single, "dash" races of a mile or so were the norm. Virginia's partnership with horses began back in 1610 with the arrival of the first horses to the Virginia colonies. Forward thinking Virginia colonists began to improve upon the speed of these short stocky horses by introducing some of the best early imports from England into their local bloodlines. Horse racing has always been popular in Virginia, especially during Colonial times when one-on-one matches took place down village streets, country lanes and across level pastures. Some historians claim that the first American Horse races were held near Richmond in Enrico County (now Henrico County), Virginia, in 1674. A Match Race at Tucker’s Quarter Paths – painting by Sam Savitt Early Racing in America Boston vs Fashion (The Great Match Race) Importation of Thoroughbreds into America The first Thoroughbred horse imported into the American Colonies was Bulle Rock (GB), who was imported in 1730 by Samuel Gist of Hanover County, Virginia.

  • History 216-02: "From the Founding of Jamestown Through the American Revolution"
    History 216-02: "From the Founding of Jamestown through the American Revolution" J.P. Whittenburg Fall 2009 Email: [email protected] Office: Young House (205 Griffin Avenue) Web Page: http://faculty.wm.edu/jpwhit Telephone: 757-221-7654 Office Hours: By Appointment Clearly, this isn't your typical class. For one thing, we meet all day on Wednesdays. For another, we will spend most of our class time "on-site" at archaeological excavations, museums, or inside historic buildings. This class will concentrate on the period from the founding of Jamestown in 1607 through roughly the death of George Washington in 1799, but it is not at all a narrative that follows a neat timeline. I’ll make no attempt to touch on every important theme and we’ll depart from the chronological approach whenever targets of opportunities present themselves. As we have another course (History 220) that deals exclusively with Colonial Williamsburg, this class will focus mainly on “not-Colonial Williamsburg.” By this I simply mean that, instead of taking you to "CW" for a series of field trips, I will make a few assignments for you to visit specific places and events there on week days prior to our Wednesday class meetings. The Historic Area is easily accessible by foot and your William & Mary ID cards will get you into all the exhibitions. These are not optional activities: we'll incorporate what you see and hear at CW into our class discussions. I'll begin most classes with some sort of short background session—a clip from a movie, oral reports, or maybe something from the Internet.
