SUMMARY DESCRIPTION Located in Virginia's central Piedmont region twenty miles east of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Madison-Barbour Rural Historic district encompasses roughly 32,520 acres of western Orange County. The district's boundaries are defined on the north by Madison County and the Rapidan River; on the east by a line running parallel with Route IS, a highway linking the towns of Orange and Gordonsville; on the south by the Albernarle County line, and on the west by a series of roads and ridges and the Greene County line. Physically, the district is characterized by rich, well-drained soils, rolling terrain and an even mix of agricultural and forest land. The area's mix of hilly and undulating terrain and abundant open land affords expansive and varied vistas of the unspoiled countryside. A product of 260 years of Old World settlement, the landscape retains extensive evidence of earlier habitation. Complementing natural elements such as streams, hiUs and mature woodlands are cultural features such as early settlements, field patterns, circulation routes, hedgerows, fencelines, roadbeds and gardens. Cultural patterns are also reflected in the area's broad range of nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century architecture. While the Madison-Barbour District is perhaps best known for its large and imposing Federal, Greek Revival and Georgian Revival plantation and country houses, most contributing buildings are the product of a long vernacular building tradition. Although the district is characterized by a dispersed settlement pattern of individual farmsteads, it contains several small communities, including Tibbstown, a rural black settlemeatestablished soon after the Civil War, and BarboursviUe, a crossroads and railroad hamlet dating to the mid-nineteenth century. Modern intrusions in the district are minimal, despite the area's proximity to the city of Charlottesville and the towns of Culpeper, Orange and Gordonsville. Among the 886 architectural resources contributing to the historic character of the district are 775 buildings; these consist mainly of farm dwellings and their associated agricultural and service buildings. Other contributing buildings include six chl~rches,eleven commercial Applicable Nalimnel Register Criteria aA B c D Criteria Consideratiis (Excaptiis) =A 0 rnC D E rnF rnG Areas of Significance (enter categorica hum instru*ionrr) Pedd Significance Signi- Dates Lmm- h c~nurslAMlietlan N/ A Signifcant Person JmsMadison (U.S. ~r&ntl Jams Barbour (Va. governor) -- Slate significance of pmperty, end juwcntadn. criteria consideratiom, and argu and pemds of significmm noted ah. S S The Madison-Barbour Rural Historic District is located in central Piedmont Virginia about twenty miles east of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Straddling the Virginia horse belt, the district encompasses about fifty square miles in western Orange County. The district is one of the best-preserved and most scenic rural landscapes in the upper Piedmont. The gently rolling, semimountainous terrain is broken intermittently by broad stretches of level ground. A web of roadways, many of which date to the colonial period, offer the traveler frequent and expansive views of unspoiled countryside. The district is distinguished today, as it has been since the eighteenth century, by unusually large landholdings. The wealth generated by these large tracts of exceptionally productive, well-drained soil encouraged landowning families to erect some of the finest country houses in the state. The district's name refers to two of the area's most prominent landholding families: the Madisons and the Barbours. Both families produced political leaders of national stature, and both erected architecturally important plantation complexes--Montpelier and Barboursville--that still stand. In all, the district contains some 886 contributing architectural resources, including over .three hundred_.dwellings running the gamut of national styles and vernacular forms and reflecting a broad socio-econornjc spectrum. Best known for its large estates with imposing Federal and Georgian-style mansions, the district also contains exemplary groupings of agricd~dbuildings and locally significant religious, commercial, and transportation-related structures. Too, the Madison-Barbour Historic District retains a high degree of integrity as a historic landscape, illustrating the long-term interadion of human and natural forces.

  • Palladio's Influence in America
    Palladio’s Influence In America Calder Loth, Senior Architectural Historian, Virginia Department of Historic Resources 2008 marks the 500th anniversary of Palladio’s birth. We might ask why Americans should consider this to be a cause for celebration. Why should we be concerned about an Italian architect who lived so long ago and far away? As we shall see, however, this architect, whom the average American has never heard of, has had a profound impact on the architectural image of our country, even the city of Baltimore. But before we investigate his influence we should briefly explain what Palladio’s career involved. Palladio, of course, designed many outstanding buildings, but until the twentieth century few Americans ever saw any of Palladio’s works firsthand. From our standpoint, Palladio’s most important achievement was writing about architecture. His seminal publication, I Quattro Libri dell’ Architettura or The Four Books on Architecture, was perhaps the most influential treatise on architecture ever written. Much of the material in that work was the result of Palladio’s extensive study of the ruins of ancient Roman buildings. This effort was part of the Italian Renaissance movement: the rediscovery of the civilization of ancient Rome—its arts, literature, science, and architecture. Palladio was by no means the only architect of his time to undertake such a study and produce a publication about it. Nevertheless, Palladio’s drawings and text were far more engaging, comprehendible, informative, and useful than similar efforts by contemporaries. As with most Renaissance-period architectural treatises, Palladio illustrated and described how to delineate and construct the five orders—the five principal types of ancient columns and their entablatures.

E.NEW YORK .Lie LIBRARY rs526390 Copyright 1901 by Edgar Woods. • -• THE MicHiE Company, Printers, Charlottesville, Va. 1901. PREFACE. An examination of the records of the county for some in- formation, awakened curiosity in regard to its early settle- ment, and gradually led to a more extensive search. The fruits of this labor, it was thought, might be worthy of notice, and productive of pleasure, on a wider scale. There is a strong desire in most men to know who were their forefathers, whence they came, where they lived, and how they were occupied during their earthly sojourn. This desire is natural, apart from the requirements of business, or the promptings of vanity. The same inquisitiveness is felt in regard to places. Who first entered the farms that checker the surrounding landscape, cut down the forests that once covered it, and built the habitations scattered over its bosom? With the young, who are absorbed in the engagements of the present and the hopes of the future, this feeling may not act with much energy ; but as they advance in life, their thoughts turn back with growing persistency to the past, and they begin to start questions which perhaps there is no means of answering.

Perdue, Jr., and Nancy J. Martin-Perdue During his ventures through the Southern Highlands searching for English folksongs in oral tradition in America in 1916, Cecil Sharp, then director of the Stratford-on-Avon School of Folk Lore and Folk Dancing in England, spent some time in Albemarle County. Here Sharp collected ballads from a number of individuals, including Nuel Walton of Brown's Cove, and Orilla Keeton and Victoria (Shifflett) Morris at Mt. Fair, and he published some of their texts and music in his English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians. Later, beginning in 1932, members of the Virginia Folklore Society would record on aluminum discs the singing of Morris and Keeton and preserve in manuscript form the songs and ballads of Smith Morris of Greene County, Daisy Nicholson and J. M. Jenkins of Madison County, and Z. T. Compton of Warren County, among others whose names would also eventually appear on the lists of those whose lands were condemned for the development of Shenandoah National Park.2 1The material in this article is part of a book-length manuscript, which bears the same title and is in preparation.
