  • Mrs. General Lee's Attempts to Regain Her Possessions After the Cnil War
    MRS. GENERAL LEE'S ATTEMPTS TO REGAIN HER POSSESSIONS AFTER THE CNIL WAR By RUTH PRESTON ROSE When Mary Custis Lee, the wife of Robert E. Lee, left Arlington House in May of 1861, she removed only a few of her more valuable possessions, not knowing that she would never return to live in the house which had been home to her since her birth in 1808. The Federal Army moved onto Mrs. Lee's Arling­ ton estate on May 25, 1861. The house was used as army headquarters during part of the war and the grounds immediately around the house became a nation­ al cemetery in 1864. Because of strong anti-confederate sentiment after the war, there was no possibility of Mrs. Lee's regaining possession of her home. Restora­ tion of the furnishings of the house was complicated by the fact that some articles had been sent to the Patent Office where they were placed on display. Mary Anna Randolph Custis was the only surviving child of George Washing­ ton Parke Custis and Mary Lee Fitzhugh. Her father was the grandson of Martha Custis Washington and had been adopted by George Washington when his father, John Custis, died during the Revolutionary War. The child was brought up during the glorious days of the new republic, living with his adopted father in New York and Philadelphia during the first President's years in office and remaining with the Washingtons during their last years at Mount Vernon. In 1802, after the death of Martha Washington, young Custis started building Arlington House on a hill overlooking the new city of Washington.

  • Information About Washington DC Preface: I Hope Each of You Are Looking Forward to the Washington, D. C. Trip As Much As I
    Information about Washington DC Preface: I hope each of you are looking forward to the Washington, D. C. trip as much as I am. Mr. Fifer and I have prepared this pamphlet in order you may get the most of your trip. The preparation prior to the trip is what sets your trip apart from many other so that you may reflect, enjoy, and experience our nation's capital. The City Today: The city of Washington takes up the entire District of Columbia, so they are essentially the same thing. DC is not state so it does not to send any Representatives or Senators to Congress, but it is worth three Electoral votes in the Presidential election. Washington, DC has a population of approximately 560,000 people, making it smaller than Columbus, Ohio. This is very misleading however. Counting the suburbs in Maryland and Virginia, DC has a metropolitan area of over 5 Million, fifth largest in the country, compared to 1.5 million for Columbus. You won't see any skyscrapers in DC, although you will see them across the Potomac River in Virginia. There is a height restriction in DC so that the Capitol Building and the Washington Monument are never overshadowed by other buildings. You will see statues; hundreds of statues of famous people are all over the city. History of DC: A site on the Potomac River for a new capital city was selected in 1788 as a compromise between the Northern and Southern states. The site was picked because it was on the "fall line" of the Potomac.
