  • Buckland History
    HISTORIC SITE FILE: Bu ti< LftAl D PRINCE WILLIAM PVBUC LIBRARY SYSTEM RELIC/Bull Run Reg Lib Manassas, VA Buckland History Prior to the establishment of Buckland Towne in 1798, this same site, on the banks of Broad Run, was a thriving prehistoric, Native American settlement. The first recorded deeds make reference to the "Indian Springs". There were five springs, which indicates a rather large Indian population. Jefferson Street, that bisects the village of Buckland, was once known as the Iroquois Trail. (Record of this Trail appears in 1662, when Col. Abraham Wood, a noted surveyor of his day, reported that "the Susquehannoc Indians would leave their main village about forty miles up the Susquehanna River; make their way to Point of Rocks, thence down into North Carolina, where they would barter with Indians on the Yadkin River for beaver skins, then return to New Amsterdam and sell their skins to the Dutch".) After the Treaty of Albany was signed in 1722, the trail be~ame known as the Carolina Trail or Road. This location on the banks of Broad Run with a never failing, swift flow of water, proved to be as desirable to the European settlers but, rather for the establishment of mills. The land at Buckland was originally part of the Broad Run Tract owned by Robert (King) Carter and after his death, his sons, Landon and Charles, deeded the tract in 1771 to brother-in-law Walker Taliaferro. The Carter family had operated a Mill here in the early 177o's when the property was conveyed in 1774 to Samuel Love "together with the mill built and erected thereon and the land mill dam and other appurtenances used with said mill".

  • September 2020
    View as Webpage September 2020 Neighbors, While the past six months of COVID times have brought much change and challenge to our lives, they have also brought a change of pace. Many are finding more time to spend with their families, visit our parks, take a walk in the neighborhood or ride our many bike trails throughout the County. Personally, one of my wife Deb’s and my new favorite activities is to grab a sandwich from a local restaurant along with our lawn chairs and head to the river to enjoy a picnic in the park. Now, with fall upon us, I expect we will see even more of our friends and neighbors enjoying opportunities like these. This change of pace and activity also remind us of the importance of parks in our communities. The November election ballot will include a parks bond that I hope you will support. Projects in our area include: a second sheet of ice at Mount Vernon RECenter, renewal of Lee District RECenter, design improvements for the South Run RECenter, phase one of construction for an archaeology-and-collections facility in Lorton and improvements for the Laurel Hill Golf Course and Mount Vernon Woods Park. These are in addition to funding for system-wide renovations and life-cycle needs for playgrounds, irrigation and lighting systems, restrooms, picnic shelters, bridges and trails. With the increase in bicycle riders on our trails and streets, this is a perfect year to join the Tour de Mount Vernon Community Bike Ride on October 3, 2020. With 35-mile and 20-mile options, this ride is very accessible for most and an excellent opportunity to see many of the outdoor highlights of the southern portion of the District.

  • 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.

    Appendix F Bill Wallen Farm Creek on Featherstone Refuge Archaeological and Historical Resources Overview ■ Elizabeth Hartwell Mason Neck National Wildlife Refuge ■ Featherstone National Wildlife Refuge Archaeological and Historical Resources Overview: Elizabeth Hartwell Mason Neck National Wildlife Refuge Archaeological and Historical Resources Overview: Elizabeth Hartwell Mason Neck National Wildlife Refuge Compiled by Tim Binzen, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, Northeast Regional Historian Archaeological and Historical Resources Mason Neck NWR contains an unusually important and diverse archaeological record, which offers evidence of thousands of years of settlement by Native Americans, and of later occupations by Euro-Americans and African- Americans. The variety within this record is known although no comprehensive testing program has been completed at the Refuge. Archaeological sites in the current inventory were identifi ed by compliance surveys in highly localized areas, or on the basis of artifacts found in eroded locations. The Refuge contains twenty-fi ve known Native American sites, which represent occupations that began as early as 9,000 years ago, and continued into the mid-seventeenth century. There are fi fteen known historical archaeological sites, which offer insights into Euro-American settlement that occurred after the seventeenth century. The small number of systematic archaeological surveys that have been completed previously at the Refuge were performed in compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and focused on specifi c locations within the Refuge where erosion control activities were considered (Wilson 1988; Moore 1990) and where trail improvements were proposed (GHPAD 2002; Goode and Balicki 2008). In 1994 and 1997, testing was conducted at the Refuge maintenance facility (USFWS Project Files).

  • JOHN MASON of ANALOSTAN ISLAND by Few People Who Live Or
    JOHN MASON OF ANALOSTAN ISLAND By WILLARD J. WEBB Few people who live or work in the multistoried Rosslyn of today rea­ lize that its antecedents as a community date back to 1798 and an attempt to found a town there called South Haven. In 1798, John Mason, the son of George Mason of Gunston Hall, petitioned the Virginia Assembly for authority to found such a town on land he owned along the Virginia shore of the Potomac, opposite Georgetown in what is now Arlington. The Assembly passed the necessary legislation, but the plan was never carried out, and development of Rosslyn did not begin until well after the Civil War. The reasons for the failure of Mason's project are not ap­ parent, and he is scarcely remembered in modern Rosslyn. He did, never­ theless, play a prominent role in the business and social affairs of both Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C., for almost sixty years from the early 1790s until his death in 1849. John Mason was the fourth of five sons and the seventh child of George and Ann Eilbeck Mason. He was born at his maternal grandmother's house in Charles County, Maryland, on April 4, 1766. He spent his child­ hood at Gunston Hall enjoying all the comforts associated with a large and prosperous plantation. The only trauma in his early life was the death of his mother when he was only six years old. He described this event in remarkable detail in an unfinished recollection of his early life written in his old age.
