It’s ultra smooth putting surfaces are a treat to play for all golfers especially masters of the “flatstick.” After golf eat, drink and relax in Colonial Heritage’s magnificent Clubhouse modeled after British architecture of the colonial era. Kiskiack Golf Club From the moment you arrive on the first tee, you’ll begin to realize why Kiskiack is so unique. The course’s beautiful surroundings will allow you to unwind, the spectacular views will inspire you, and the challenging layout will awaken your spirit. Set along the ridge of a natural bluff, Kiskiack offers a great day of golf for players of all skill levels. The Golf Club at Viniterra This Rees Jones design is generous off the tee but requires attention when playing approach shots; the greens are sloped and well bunkered. Errant iron shots will test the short game but ultra-smooth A-4 bent grass putting surfaces keep par saving putts online. Rolling terrain with moderate elevation changes, beautiful pine forests and several landmark oaks add additional character to this soon to be well known design! www.VirginiaGolfVacations.com • 1-877-806-8163 7 WILLIAMSBURG Golf Courses Fords Colony Blackheath Fords Colony’s most picturesque golf course, the Blackheath, is also Fords Colony’s most challenging. Water hazards come into play on thirteen holes; several doglegs require attention from the tee and well bunkered greens. Blackheath’s eighteenth is one of Williamsburg’s most popular holes. A medium length par four with a narrow fairway bordered by a lake that encircles the green creating a scenic island green finish, the perfect setting for closing hole drama in a tight match! Fords Colony Blue Heron Fords Colony’s Blue Heron course is set among dense Virginia wetlands, a unique setting for golf that is also home to a variety of wildlife. Marsh Hawks searching for prey provide plenty of inspiration throughout your round. The Blue Heron received new greens in 2013! The New Champion Bermuda putting surfaces are the only one of its kind in the Williamsburg area and a fantastic playing surface that you have to see for yourself. Fords Colony Marsh Hawk The Marsh Hawk course is Fords Colony’s original course and a very interesting layout that annually hosted the PGA tour qualifier for the Michelob Championship as well as several Virginia State Opens. Booming drives are the norm with several elevated tee boxes played to fairways framed with Dan Maples signature bunkers. Undulated greens require accurate iron play and deft touch with the putter. Take advantage of unlimited play promotions through Virginia Golf Vacations at Fords Colony. 8 www.VirginiaGolfVacations.com • 1-877-806-8163 WILLIAMSBURG Golf Courses Golden Horseshoe Gold Course The Golden Horseshoe Gold Course’s history is intertwined with the history of golf. The Gold course hosted 5 USGA championships and recently the 2007 NCAA Men’s Golf Championship. Designed by Robert Trent Jones, touted by some as the best course designer of all time. Jones called it his finest design and the Gold course has the awards to prove it. The Golden Horseshoe Gold Course is adding another chapter to it’s rich history.

Golden Horseshoe Green Course Opening in 1991, the Green course was designed by Rees Jones, son of Gold Course architect Robert Trent Jones Sr. In 1992 Golf Digest selected the Green course as one of it’s five best new resort courses.

  • Northern Neck Land Proprietary Records
    The Virginia government always held legal jurisdiction over the area owned by the proprietary, so all court actions are found within the records of the counties that comprised it. The Library holds local records such Research Notes Number 23 as deeds, wills, orders, loose papers, and tax records of these counties, and many of these are on microfilm and available for interlibrary loan. Researchers will find that the proprietary records provide a unique doc- umentary supplement to the extant records of this region. The history of Virginia has been enriched by their survival. Northern Neck Land Proprietary Records Introduction The records of the Virginia Land Office are a vital source of information for persons involved in genealog- ical and historical research. Many of these records are discussed in Research Notes Number 20, The Virginia Land Office. Not discussed are the equally rich and important records of the Northern Neck Land Proprietary, also known as the Fairfax Land Proprietary. While these records are now part of the Virginia Land Office, they were for more than a century the archive of a vast private land office owned and oper- ated by the Fairfax family. The lands controlled by the family comprised an area bounded by the Rappahannock and Potomac Rivers and stretched from the Chesapeake Bay to what is now West Virginia. It embraced all or part of the cur- rent Virginia counties and cities of Alexandria, Arlington, Augusta, Clarke, Culpeper, Fairfax, Fauquier, Frederick, Greene, King George, Lancaster, Loudoun, Madison, Northumberland, Orange, Page, Prince William, Rappahannock, Shenandoah, Stafford, Warren, Westmoreland, and Winchester, and the current West Virginia counties of Berkeley, Hampshire, Hardy, Jefferson, and Morgan.

Introduction The Williamsburg Civic Association (WCA) was established in 1951 to promote the ge- neral welfare of the residents of the Williamsburg community. With approximately 1100 households, Williamsburg is an attractive neighborhood in North Arlington boun- ded by Sycamore Street, North 27th Street, North Trinidad Street, North 37th Street, and North Kensington Street. The community of Williamsburg is composed primarily of single-family residences, with two small strip shopping centers containing a variety of commercial retail establishments. Williamsburg is served well by arterial roads, public transportation, and other community services. With close proximity to the District of Columbia, award-winning schools, as well as quiet and safe neighborhoods, Williamsburg remains an extremely desirable place to live, work, and raise a family. The residents of Williamsburg are committed to main- taining the community’s beauty and appeal and working with County staff and offi- cials to influence its future development. The WCA Neighborhood Conservation Plan (NCP) captures the community’s vision for its future and also provides a rationale for potential requests for funding for commu- nity capital improvement programs.

  • Alexandria and Belhaven a Case of Dual Identity
    City of Alexandria Office of Historic Alexandria Alexandria Archaeology Studies of the Old Waterfront Alexandria and Belhaven A Case of Dual Identity By Diane Riker © 2009 We returned down the river about 16 miles to Alexandria or Belhaven, a small trading place in one of the finest situations imaginable. Archdeacon Burnaby, October 17591 For the first dozen years of its history, Alexandria, Virginia, was a town with two names. The majority of those who lived, worked and visited here on the crescent bay by the Potomac knew it as Alexandria, while some of its most prominent citizens called it Belhaven. Others, including mapmakers and the visiting archdeacon quoted above, accepted the difference and used both names. More than a century after the initial sales of Alexandria lots took place in mid-July 1749, the first comprehensive history of the town was written. Its author, William F. Carne, claimed that Belhaven had predated Alexandria by at least a decade. In his series of articles published in the Alexandria Gazette in the 1870s and 1880s,2 Carne described a bustling little community of merchants and their families residing at the river end of Oronoco Street as early as the 1730s. In an otherwise estimable work, it was a questionable theory. But it proved contagious. Numerous historians have adopted this view. Which came first: Alexandria or Belhaven? This paper will attempt to disentangle fact from fantasy. Earliest References to Alexandria Among the George Washington papers in the Library of Congress is a half page of smudgy and hurried script, the output perhaps of someone taking notes out of doors.
