Download or read book The Tuleyries written by John David Myles and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-03 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tuleyries is the story of a grand estate and the Federal mansion which is its centerpiece. Through the almost two centuries it has stood gazing out to the Blue Ridge, The Tuleyries has been a landmark in Clarke County, Virginia, a considerable achievement given the number of competitors in the area. Architecturally unique in many ways, it bears careful study and that study will bring great pleasure. Two families have cherished and maintained The Tuleyries since its construction in the early 1830s by Joseph Tuley Jr. From him, it passed to his niece and remained in her family until 1903 when it was purchased by Graham Blandy, a wealthy New York broker who had a love for the house and the farm. Following his death, it passed to his wife, then her sister, then her sister's son, and most recently to his son and daughter. Their stories are equally intriguing.

Book Clarke County

    Book Details:
  • Author : Maral S. Kalbian
  • Publisher : Arcadia Publishing
  • Release : 2011
  • ISBN : 9780738582498
  • Pages : 132 pages

Download or read book Clarke County written by Maral S. Kalbian and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.
