Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Brief History of Alexandria County, Virginia: Its Wealth and Resources, Great and Growing Industries, Educational and Social Advantages, Future Outlook Promising Alexandria County, the smallest and most densely populated county in Virginia, was once a part of the county of Fairfax. On December 3, 1789, the State of Virginia, by an act of the legislature and in pursuance of the United States Constitution, ceded to the United States that part of the territory subsequently known as the county of Alexandria. Congress passed an act accepting the cession. Maryland ceded to the United States part of her territory known as the county of Washington, and the two counties constituted a territory, ten miles square, which Congress set apart for the seat of government, and organized it under the name of the District of Columbia. The county of Washington comprised all the land in the District of Columbia north of the Potomac River and the county of Alexandria all the land in said District south of the Potomac. A circuit court was established by Congress for the county of Washington and another for the county of Alexandria, and the circuit judge for Alexandria County was required by law to reside therein.
