Book excerpt: Bath has a small number of people, and a considerable share of this small number is a new element. To many individuals of the latter class a history of the county will appeal very little. For the above reasons we confine ourselves to a presentation of the more striking and important features in the story of this county. But if, in a commercial sense, this county seemed only a moderately promising field for a local history, it remains very true that Bath is one of the best known counties of the Old Dominion. It is one of the older counties in the Alleghany belt, and it lies on a natural highway of travel and commerce. The story of its evolution is one of much interest. -- Foreword.

Download or read book Bath County Virginia written by Margo Oxendine and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named for its restorative mineral springs, Bath County has been a popular tourist destination since the mid-18th Century. Visitors, and those who call it home, are charmed by its bucolic beauty-rolling meadows, pristine rivers, and ancient, cozy mountains. Experience day-to-day life, as well as the allure of the springs and their adjacent grand hotels, by leafing through the past in this volume of 200 photographs, many never before published. Visit "The Hot," "The Warm," "The Healing," Bath Alum and Millboro Springs as they once were. See the gentry who paid small fortunes to "take the waters," and the generations who served them with grace. Our breathtaking views may seem to have changed little through the years; these photos show just how different the view over Warm Springs Gap was a century ago, just how Hot Springs appeared when Main Street was barely more than a flower-filled field. Bath's proud, independent, industrious population is shown at work and play, at school and church, at home on the porch. Fabled, long-gone faces once again come into focus, while those still enjoying life here today are captured in childhood, or the glow of youth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annals of Bath County Virginia For the above reasons we confine ourselves to a presentation of the more striking and important features in the story of this county. But while this was the only course possible, we have sought to treat these features with all the fullness the limits of the book would per mit. And since the present volume is a county history in a somewhat abbreviated form, we entitle it The Annals of Bath, rather than A History of Bath. Owing to the necessary limitation in space, it has been impossible to give genealogic records of the old families of the county. A partial account is all the size of the book will permit. Yet this account would cover more pages, if there had been a more general response to our requests for information. What was not furnished to us We could not put in, and we disclaim all responsibility for its non-appearance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketches: Of Virginia Hot Springs, Warm Sulphur Springs, and Bath County Virginia The statement that this place is one of the oldest resorts in this country seems to strike the minds of some people with surprise, when they learn at the same time that it was not until the year 1892 that a railroad was constructed into this section. And yet the fact remains. As early as 1720 explorers had pushed their way up the waters of the James River and following its branches had spied out this land. That they thought it a goodly land is borne out by an application made at that time to the authorities at Williamsburg to allow them to take it up and settle a family on each one thousand acres. Before the land now occupied by the stately city of Richmond had been laid off into "town lots" (1737)for Col. Wm. Byrd, the hardy Scotch-Irish, had pushed past the already settled sections east of the Blue Ridge and begun to conquer the land. In 1745 the regular surveys were made, showing who was in possession of the different tracts, and the list embraces the names of men who swept the Indians back year after year, crushing them and Lord Dunmore's infamous plans in the battle of Point Pleasant in 1774, really the first battle of the Revolution. Here, too, was the nursery of the folk who, following the eastern base of the Alleghanies, populated what is now the state of Tennessee, but first known as the state of Franklin; or crossing over the Alleghanies settled in the rich valley of the Kanawha or became the pioneer settlers of Kentucky.
