  • Prospect Hill As Seen Before Demolition in 1965
    Courtesy of Arlington Historical Society The 1841 James Roach mansion on Prospect Hill as seen before demolition in 1965. 14 ARLINGTON HISTORICAL MAGAZINE Prospect Hill A Lost Arlington Historical Treasure BY SHERMAN w. PRATT In the 1960s, Arlington and Northern Virginia lost one of their most price­ less and unique historical assets with the rezoning and destruction of the ante­ bellum dwelling of early settler James Roach, standing majestically on Arling­ ton Ridge and overlooking the Capital City area. The dwelling dated from Arlington's early history after the Revolutionary War and the establishment of the Republic, when the area was still a part of the Capital City. In the late 1830s, Philip Roach, with his wife and two daughters and son James, arrived in Alexandria from his former home in Ireland. He immediately set about to find land upon which to establish a New World home for himself and his family. In due course, he focused on one of the most desirable and attractive pieces of real estate in Northern Virginia. The site was well elevated, located about a mile from the Potomac River, and today comprises approximately the northern portion of Arlington Ridge, parts of Crystal City, and Pentagon City and their nearby environs. The land was part of the 1669 original patent 1 of ship captain Robert Howson that was purchased by John Alexander, passed to his son Philip, and even­ tQally conveyed in 1811 to William Henry Washington. It was taken over· by the Bank of the United States in 1836, and then purchased by James Roach on June 29, 1837.2 The senior Roach died on June 9, 1838 at the age of 50, and James, still then residing in Alexandria, promptly looked around for a proper lo­ cation on which to build his home on his new property.

  • The Telephone in the Northern Virginia Area from the Beginning to World War II
    The Telephone in the Northern Virginia Area from the Beginning to World War II Br JIM PEARSON Earliest Years In April 1877, Bell's first permanent outdoor telephone wire was strung between Boston and Somerville, three miles distant. 1 In 1878, the development of an "exchange" opened with twenty-one subscribers in New Haven, Con­ necticut.2 This exchange made possible switched calls between any number of telephones rather than only direct connection between two or three on a com­ mon wire. The use of switched calls, starting in 1878, required an "operator" to patch the calls thru via cords from one line jack to another. Boys were hired for this job, but proved too unruly so girls with lady-like manners soon replaced the "wild boys."3 When a call was placed, the calling party asked to be connected by name to the called party. The operators quickly learned to which switchboard jack each subscriber's line was connected. In 1879, an epidemic of measles in Lowell, Massachusetts, caused concern that Lowell's four operators might succumb and paralyze the telephone system that served more than 200 subscribers. So that substitute operators might be more easily trained, the use of numbers in­ stead of names was begun. This major change in handling calls went into effect almost without notice.4 Bell licensed telephone service began in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1877, in Washington, D.C., in 1878, in Richmond, Virginia, in 1879, in the city of Alexandria, Virginia, in 1880-81, in Falls Church, Virginia, in 1888, and in Arlington (Rosslyn), Virginia, in 1898.
