Book excerpt: Although it is one of the smallest counties in Virginia, Clarke County has a remarkably rich history reflected in its cultural and natural resources. Located in the northern Shenandoah Valley and 60 miles northwest of Washington, DC, Clarke was formed from Frederick County, Virginia, in 1836. Native Americans roamed the area for centuries, and their story is reflected in the name of the Shenandoah River, which refers to "daughter of the stars." The Blue Ridge Mountains provide a dramatic eastern backdrop with recreational opportunities along the Appalachian Trail. Significant past citizens include Thomas Lord Fairfax, Gen. Daniel Morgan, and politicians Harry F. Byrd Sr. and Jr. After the Civil War, many of Clarke's former slaves stayed and built their own free communities. Unlike surrounding counties, Clarke has maintained the rural and agricultural traditions begun in colonial times. These and other distinctive stories that make up Clarke County's unique history are captured within this book.

Download or read book A Separate Place written by Warren R. Hofstra and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 1999 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of Clarke County, Virginia go back more than 250 years to the men and women who first settled in Shenandoah Valley and left their imprint upon the land. When, in the early 1830s, the people in one portion of old Frederick County moved to establish their own county, they were seeking to maintain the way of life they had inherited from this earlier generation. At the same time, they were acting in concert with contemporary forces that had a statewide, and in some ways national, significance. The origins of Clarke County--how it came to be, and why--are examined here for the first time. Warren R. Hofstra not only tells the story of the people who made Clarke County a separate place but also puts the movement for its formation in the context of Virginia and U.S. politics. It is a story fascinating in detail and rich in implication, for the issues that strained old Frederick to the breaking point--local control vs. an expanded federal government, conformity vs. pluralism, agrarian values vs. commercial pursuits--are still featured in the political debates today both regionally and nationally.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Clarke County, Virginia and Its Connection With the War Between the States It has been said that when the Pilgrim Fathers landed from the May Flower on Plymouth Rock, one of them had in his hands a pen and ink horn and that he immediately commenced to write history. His spirit still lives and has been writing from that day to this. When one visits Boston he sees everywhere monuments and markers of historical events, from Bunker Hill Monument and Paul Revere's' old house to the place where the witches were burned. Old South Church and Fanueil Hall are filled with mementoes of the past. How is it with us? Here in the County of Clarke from Mt. Airy to the Opequon, from Gaylord to White Post, every foot of ground has been made historic by the footsteps of our armies, by the combats of our brave men. Every neighborhood, every house, has its story of suffering and adventure for the cause all loved so well. The J. E. B. Stuart Camp of Confederate Veterans wish before it is too late to preserve these facts, which should be and will be of so much interest to their descendants and all who may hereafter be citizens of our beloved county. The story properly and fully written would tell of bravery unsurpassed on the part of our gallant soldiers, of devotion unrivalled on the part of our old men and noble women. Of a patriotism on the part of all which led them to suffer all things, bear all things, if thereby they might bring success to the battle for liberty under the Constitution handed down to us by our fathers.
