    Julia Wilbur: Part 2 The Civil War Years in Alexandria and Washington, DC (October 1862-1865) Diaries Transcribed and Annotated by Paula T. Whitacre For Alexandria Archaeology The diaries of Julia Wilbur are part of the Quaker & Special Collections at Haverford College Library, Collection No. 1158. The photo used on the cover is part of the collection. I undertook this project for the Alexandria Archaeology Museum and Friends of Alexandria Archaeology. The Archaeology staff have been very helpful as they see the value in having these pages in one place, transcribed and searchable. I thank the Haverford Library and especially Diana Peterson and Ann Upton for helping me access the originals of the diaries, and the librarians in the Alexandria Library Local History Room for their assistance in helping me access microfilmed copies. Anna Lynch, volunteer, Alexandria Archaeology, provided a second read for most of the entries, helping to decipher some of the penmanship and editing my transcription. Jill Grinsted, another Alexandria Archaeology volunteer, transcribed November-December 1865 and proofread the whole. Laura Bonomini, Laura Hellwig, and Skyler Padia, students in Dr. Pamela Cressey’s Historical Archaeology course at George Washington University in Spring 2013, transcribed November 1864 through October 1865. Pam was the City Archaeologist who first suggested I take on this project and had helpful information throughout. The uncertainties that persist are represented with a question mark within brackets—[?]. Further comments from the transcriber are italicized. Wilbur often used an abbreviation for the word “and” that is someplace between a “&” and a “&” that we have transcribed with “&”. Also, she used this symbol, combined with “c” that we have transcribed as “&c.” based on its context.

Early's Raid on Washington, DC, the threat to the nation's capital diminished considerably. Many units formerly stationed at one of the forts in the Defenses of Wash- ington found themselves in the field, most likely in the Army of the Potomac, and possibly converted from artillery to infantry. No additional Confederate invasions or attacks on the Defenses of Washington oc- curred. 1 After the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia's surrender at Appomattox, VA, on April 9, 1 865, the Defenses ofWashington performed its last military function of the Civil War. In the midst of Washington's exuberant celebrations, "The chain of forts around the city, and batteries of field artillery between, made a ring of cannons around the city which were fired in rotation for several hours.

Jones, Historic Preservation Planner, CPHD Subject: Village at Shirlington Site History This memorandum details preliminary research on the history of the present-day Village at Shirlington, which is also known by the historical names of Shirlington Business Center (1943- ca. 1976) and Shirlington Shopping Center (ca. 1969-1986). This approximately 27-acre site is located at South Arlington Mill Drive and is bisected by Campbell Avenue, South Randolph Street, and South Quincy Street in Arlington, Virginia. The historical center dates to 1943 and was oriented around present-day Campbell Avenue, which was formerly named 28th Street South. The center has undergone several renovations and various plans for revitalization between 1959-2006, which will be discussed in more detail in this memorandum (see Table 1). The present-day center is surrounded by apartments, condominiums, a hotel, and office spaces (Figure 1). There is also a transit hub for bus transfers that accommodates connections to the greater Arlington area as well as the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) bus and metro rail. This increase in mixed-use development and regional connectivity is a direct result of the revitalization efforts
