If your library has old issues of National Geographic, you'll find that THE PATOWMACK CANAL was the main article in June 1987. It was begun by George Washington & a group of wealthy investors in 1785. It includes maps.

Open Door Baptist Chapel I attended in the 50's was pastored by a Seligman. Julian and his wife Mildred were members as were Jack and his wife Catherine. Julian passed away some years ago. Not sure about Mildred. Jack, who I believe was pastor Seligman's grandson, is currently living in Shenandoah County, Virginia.

She was married to Denis J. SULLIVAN although I have no proof that a
marriage actually took place. They had a daughter, Grace, born about 1871 in

Hello,
I am new to this list, so I wanted to post an introduction. I currently live in Kansas, but my family's roots are in the northern VA and DC area. Unfortunately I do not get back as often as I would like to do hands on research.
I am researching primarily the surname ELLIOTT and it's spelling variations, in Fairfax and surrounding areas. I have specific connections to Alexandria, Wash DC, Georgetown, etc.
I would like to hear from anyone with an ELLIOTT connection in the area, as I am attempting to

The book is by Melvin Steadman and I believe the title was By Hearth and
Fireside, but my memory is shorter than I am on the correct title. I feel
certain you can find it by the author's name. He was a local boy in the
city of Falls Church.

I was wondering if anyone out there was researching the TURNER family in
Alexandria, Virginia. Specifically, the information that I have so far
is:
John M. Turner born 21 June 1797 in Alexandria.
At some point he, and possibly his family, moved as John was married in
Wilmington, Delaware to Mary Garland in 1827. I would very much
appreciate any inforamtion on John's family. Thanks!

Some time back there was discussion about a book written about falls
church va history

million thanks. i want to read this book badly.
