Conservation Management Institute, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg. 41 pp. Page 1 Freshwater Mussel Assessment in the Upper Nottoway River and its Tributaries on Fort Pickett, VA Abstract The upper reaches of the Nottoway River and its tributaries on Fort Pickett, Virginia are located within one of the most diverse river basins of the Atlantic Slope region. Freshwater mussels are vital components of these aquatic ecosystems and are often referred to as ecosystem engineers. Mussel surveys on Fort Pickett have historically concentrated on the central reaches of the Nottoway below the reservoir. Thus, assessments in tributaries and sites above the reservoir were needed. We evaluated a total of 68 sites across Fort Pickett and implemented a two-phase sampling design using time-constrained and quadrat-based surveys at a sub-set of these sites.

  • “Calamitous War” Mecklenburg County, Virginia, and the War Between the States
    “Calamitous War” Mecklenburg County, Virginia, and the War Between the States “God grant some better day may come.” Mecklenburg County, Virginia, emerged from the Civil War unscarred by battle within its boundaries. The only obvious physical evidence now that the war had even touched the county is a marker or two and the statue of a Civil War soldier before the courthouse. No earthworks. No cannonballs in the sides of buildings. The scars the war did leave are harder to see. The Scene Is Set When the war started, Mecklenburg and neighboring counties were generally known as being rich counties. In the July 4, 1861, issue of the Richmond, Virginia, Daily Dispatch, a correspondent noted that “Old Mecklenburg is by no means the least among the counties of Virginia in size, wealth and numbers. In refinement of its population, she is among the first rank, and … in patriotism perhaps the first of the State. Glorious Old Dominion!” The correspondent had mentioned a point to keep in mind: Virginia — the glorious Old Dominion. For many Southerners, loyalty to one’s state was paramount. Many U.S. Army and Navy officers resigned their commissions, followed their home states out of the Union, and accepted Confederate commissions. They included Mecklenburg County natives J. Thomas Goode (Lieut. Col., CSA) and William Conway Whittle (Commodore, CSA). Robert E. Lee resigned from the U.S. Army as well, “[p]erhaps … tugged by what his cousin Anna Maria Fitzhugh called ‘a sweet binding to this spot of earth, this soil of Virginia that is irresistible.’ ” In 1853, writer J.G.

  • Cheroenhaka Nottoway Indian Oral History Supported by Archeological Finds at the Hand Site
    Cheroenhaka Nottoway Indian Oral History Supported by Archeological Finds At The Hand Site VISIT THE PLACES WHERE OUR HISTORY LIVES Cheroenhaka Nottoway Indian Oral History Supported by Archeological Finds At The Hand Site (44SN22) Written by: Chief Walt “Red Hawk” Brown and Theresa Preston All photos courtesy of Bert Wendell (ASV) It’s sad but true that the oral histories of Native First Peoples are hardly ever taken seriously. It’s rare to hear an oral history and immediately recognize that there is physical evidence to support the claim. But that’s exactly what happened when Archeological Society of Virginia (ASV) member, Russell Darden, of Courtland VA, heard Chief Walt “Red Hawk” Brown recount the oral history of the Cheroenhaka Nottoway Tribe of Southampton County Virginia. A story had been passed down by the tribal elders that there had been a “saving mission” down river, into the region known today as the Outer Banks of North Carolina. People from far away had come by boat into the region. The boat off loaded many people and supplies and then left. Those remaining behind struggled to survive. They needed to be taught basic survival skills. Their sheer numbers had overwhelmed the capability of the local Native People. Abundant food resources were available, but not the necessary man power to devote to daily mentoring of such a large group. The language barrier didn’t help. Thus neighboring tribes up river were called to come and take some of these new people. The Cheroenhaka Nottoway was one of the tribes who responded. Mr. Darden knew that archeological evidence had been found that proves that at least one, a European woman, lived, and was buried in the tribal burial grounds along with grave goods consisting of her European scissors, hair comb and a handmade wrought iron carpentry nail.
