Excerpt: ... present generation, who encountered great perils and privations in subduing those lands on which their descendants now repose with none to make them afraid. Those who take pleasure in such researches must refer to the original records, which are too voluminous to be published. The reports of the processioners and counters of tobacco plants in this parish for the years 1726, '7, '8, and '9 are curious, as bringing to our minds the former inhabitants of that region of country lying upon the headwaters of the Mattapony and Rappahannock rivers, "even to the great mountains," and including the present counties of Spotsylvania, Culpeper, Rappahannock, and parts of Orange and Green. So full is the enumeration of names, and so minute the description of the country, that one who is familiar with it can people it with a past generation, assigning to many of them their estates, and designating the social circle in which they probably moved. I shall confine myself generally to such extracts from the books of the vestry as tend to illustrate our civil and church history, with an occasional incident throwing light upon the social state, and exhibiting our fathers and mothers, not in the dim outline of general history, but as they appeared to each other, in their own dress and ways and modes of speech. It has been already said that the Governor had fixed the seat of justice at Germanna, a village founded by him, and named from some Germans sent over by Queen Anne, upon whom the General Assembly conferred some peculiar privileges, allowing them to entertain a minister of their own, and exempting them from taxation for ten years. This act of humane and liberal legislation deserves to be held in lasting remembrance. The Rev. Hugh Jones, a cotemporary...

Located near where the Rappahannock River crosses the Atlantic Seaboard fall line, Fredericksburg was a prominent port in Virginia during the colonial era.

Download or read book Noble Powell and the Episcopal Establishment in the Twentieth Century written by David Hein and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quintessential man for his own season, Noble Powell (1891-1968) was an episcopal priest and then bishop who epitomized the cultural and ecclesiastical epoch before the tumultuous sixties. This volume, the first biography devoted to a dynamic churchman often referred to as "the last bishop of the old church", fills a major gap in American religious historiography while illuminating the strengths, flaws, and eventual decline of the Protestant establishment in the United States. Deeply influenced by the beliefs and practices of a mix of southern denominations, Powell was raised a Baptist and confirmed (to his family's chagrin) in the Episcopal Church. As parson at the University of Virginia, Powell led a flourishing student ministry before serving successively as rector of Emmanuel Church in Baltimore, dean of the National Cathedral, and bishop of the Diocese of Maryland. Hein sketches the spiritual depth, self-discipline, sense of humor, and personal magnetism that anchored Powell's unwavering commitment to the human side of the church. He shows how Powell's outlook as bishop dovetailed with the prevailing temper of his time and also discusses how Powell's leadership style, marked by patience and an aristocratic civility, diminished in effectiveness amid the upheaval of the 1960s.
