Book excerpt: The primary focus of this work is to narrate the most prominent events in the history of Virginia, and to give a geographical and statistical view of its condition before the year 1845. Information for this work was obtained by traveling over the entire state, collecting materials, taking sketches for illustrations, and via written communications. This text is comprised of three parts. The first part, a general history, surveys events from the discovery of America and first settlement of Virginia until 1845. The second part presents a geographical and statistical description of Virginia, containing results of the 1840 government census. This part also contains essays on miscellaneous topics such as the origin of the appellation "Old Dominion," the region's slavery and tobacco, the Indians, etc.; plus lists of Virginians who have held high public stations and extracts from the ancient laws of Virginia. The book's third and principal part is arranged by county, in alphabetical order, where each is successively treated, touching on local history and geography as well as prominent citizens. The following are included: descriptions of towns, literary institutions, churches and religion, public buildings, seats and memoirs of eminent Virginians, antique structures, natural scenery, anecdotes, local history and more. This work includes more than 100 illustrations of notable persons and places. Appended is a historical and descriptive sketch of the District of Columbia.

Download or read book A Naval Biographical Dictionary Volume 3 written by William R. O’Byrne and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2012-02-06 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 3 of 3. Originally published in 1849, this work gives details of “the life and services of every living officer in ‘Her Majesty's Navy” who was serving or had retired by 1845 – nearly 5,000 officers in all. Generally acknowledged as the most comprehensive work of its kind, it was a considerable undertaking for one man to piece together such detailed biographies. This information was compiled from official records and from details supplied by the officers themselves. The service details found on every page reflect the centuries-old naval traditions of devotion to duty and great bravery in the face of danger. They also provide information on the many naval actions that were fought at the end of the eighteenth and first half of nineteenth centuries. Coincidentally, the original publication took place during the year of issue of what is now referred to as the Naval General Service Medal. In 1847 Queen Victoria authorised this award to be struck to record the services of naval officers and men who took part in various actions between 1793 and 1815, later extended to 1840. The award was limited to those who were alive at the time of the announcement. Over 200 Naval actions were commemorated on clasps to this medal; details of these and a considerable number of other engagements are to be found throughout this volume. Over the century and a half since its publication, this work has established itself as an essential reference work for naval historians and for a wider section of the public who are in search of their naval ancestry.
