His sister Adelaide LeVignolia married Dr. Samuel Hampton Halley. His brother Horace married Mary Isabelle Butler. His brother Napoleon married Sarah Wilson.[4491] Stories, Letters & Biographies: See story involving Weaver in Robert E. Martin, above. “We, [of]… the “Black Horse Company,”… certify that… Weaver applied to join our Company… and was not admitted owing to the fact that he… walked with difficulty…; he… served [for the entire war] as a Scout and Courier for Gen’l Stuart.… [H]is services were very highly valued by [the] General.”[4492] See Letters Chapter. “Mortimer Weaver… was not an enlisted man, but served as courier and scout for Genl.

Genl J. E. B. Stuart C. S. A. of the operations of the Cavalry Brigade near Williamsburg in May /62,… mentions among others Private Mortimer Weaver as one of his escorts rendering efficient service bearing dispatches &c.”[4495] “The records show that one Private Mortimer Weaver was in May, 1862, a member of the escort of General J.

Appendix 2
The Men’s Present Resting Places
Where are they now? Refer to the table below to find the men according to burial place. Then go visit them. [Something Lynn said we ought to include with the book. One such chart is made. Needs update & format. Then paste or recreate here.]
Appendix 3
Map of Warrenton Cemetery
[Showing its Sections] Something Susan thinks would be extremely helpful to readers who should desire to visit the cemetery; none such complete guide exists to her knowledge, even at the cemetery itself; she learned designations from three separate sources, one of those sources being a caretaker. An integrated guide would be a wonderful asset to this book and to the community. Layout from perspective of front gate, i.e., vertically. Give (1) section names, (2) section letters where applicable, (3) color coding where applicable.
Appendix 4
Rosters
Perhaps transcribe all of the rosters—or better, scan those that aren’t printed—and include them as an appendix. Have 1859 John Brown Raid muster roll saved under rosters. Also have A. D. Payne roster.
[NOTE:here is the section break]

Lynn worked on the history of the Black Horse for more than twentythirty- five years. He provided the research for civil war artists Don Prechtel’s painting “Native Sons: the Black Horse Cavalry” and for Mort Künstler’s painting “The Bravest of the Brave: Black Horse Cavalry in Warrenton, Virginia, February 22, 1863.” He spoke about the Black Horse Cavalry on many occasions in Fauquier and wrote several articles on them for Fauquier Magazine..

The Black Horsemen of the Shenandoah Valley.
“The ‘“Black Horseman”’ of the rebels in Virginia have become celebrated for their achievements, and have done more, perhaps, than any other rebel military organization, to inspire our army with apprehension and the enemy with confidence. Their history is not devoid of interest. Several years ago the leading slaveholders of Fauquier county, Virginia, organized a secret political association, under the title of ‘“Black Horse”.’ The Black Horse was regarded as a symbol of the negro race; and no one , was admitted to membership who was not a slave owner. Warrenton was the place of meeting; …”

“… Just as the men of the Fourth Regiment were well in the saddle, after the order of their commanding officer, a single soldier, coming from the direction of the enemy, with sword in hand, dashed into the Black Horse Troop, which composed one of the squadrons of the Fourth Virginia Cavalry, and on that occasion was the color squadron, saobering the men right and left, wounded several, and among them Lieut. William A. Moss and Corp. Hugh Hamilton [BH], a gallant soldier and the color bearer. The boldness and suddenness of the attack paralyzed for a moment or two the Confederates, and in that interval this bold assailant succeeded in forcing his way through the Confederate column, and might possibly have escaped, but a shot fired by a Confederate [name & fn] brought his horse down and he fell with it. He was at once surrounded and received a sabre cut in the face while in the act of parrying a blow from a carbine; another Confederate gave him a sabre thrust in the back, and in all probability he would have been slain on the spot but for the timely interference of Capt. Henry C. Lee [N. B., not Henry Hancock Lee V, of the BH], an aid of Colonel Munford, who, seeing the struggle, rode up and put an end to it. ItT is said that Captain Lee recognized in the prostrate man a brother Mason, through some sign or cry used by the Masonic order in times of distress or danger. The hero of this affair, which sounds so like a romance [i.e., a fiction], turned out to be Capt. George N. Bliss, of the First Rhode Island Cavalry, at thate time commanding the provost guard of General Torbert, who was in command of this force at Waynesborough. He was, of course, captured, and his explanation of his rash and desperate enterprise was, that he was under the orders of Col. Charles R. Lowell, Second Massachusetts Cavalry, leading a charge of a squadron of the Third New Jersey Cavalry, and that he did not discover, until among the enemy, that the squadron that had been following him at a charge, had wheeled about and left him unsupported and alone, and , that rather than surrender, he determined upon the bold project of attempting to break through the Confederate column and escape from the other side. It came near being a success, and the same time his escape from death was almost a miracle. This adventure ended the work of the day. Immediately after it, Captain Strother advanced with his regiment, but found that the Union force had retreated, and , as it was nowt dark, pursuit was impracticable….” “A. D. Payne.” “ Late Captain of the Black Horse Troop, (Co.4 [sic; probably a misreading of “H”],) Fourth Virginia Cavalry, C. S. A.” “ Warrenton, Va.”

Stories: This Civil War Story has a little humor in it. It seems that “… Mr. Tom Fant’s (32) three younger brothers, Joseph (37), Andrew (39), and Charles (38), at the ages of 12, 10, and 8, during the height of the Civil War hostilities purloined two bandana handkerchiefs from their favorite “mammy’s cabin”. One was red with white polka dots, the other blue with white dots. These they split up and used as sails on little boats of their own fashioning and which they were sailing on the little Rappahannock River sight of their home. Suddenly they were apprehended by a detail of Union soldiers “for making signs to the enemy” and taken to the commanding officer’s camp some miles asway. After a desolate night they were released in the morning by the kindly officer in charge and returned to their homes, to be met with the remark from the irate negress from whom whey had “borrowed” the head-gear - –“That’s just whats you gits for meddling with what don’t belongs to you. Ain’t I done tole you about dis befoh?”… [under the entry for (37) FANT, JOSEPH NICHOLAS]
Tom tells of starting forth with three mounted servants— - Arthur, Lewis and Jim. Arthur and Lewis deserted to the Union troops near Richmond and took with them their horses, Tom’s best riding boots and his entire supply of tobacco. Jim remained faithful through to surrender time and returned home [sic] with Mr. Fant to the plantation that had been left behind, doing the work of three hands in the fields side my side with Mr. Tom Fant in the days of adjustment that followed the war, and with a social and economic world turned upside down for both former master and slave.

Capt. Morgan Strother “…suddenly gave the order for the dismounted men to mount, which was immediately obeyed, and just then an incident occurred worthy of mention, as exhibiting a deed of individual heroism rarely witnessed.

who shot horse [Thomas W. Garnett] fn pp 38 of book text to use with this excerpt: Bliss obtained the sabre via the man who had shot his horse, resulting in his capture. Garnett was the first man whom Bliss wounded. Apparently another Confederate soldier got the sabre after both Bliss and Garnett (and Hamilton, et al.) were taken to the hospital. Garnett got from that soldier “and carried it the balance of the war….” He buried it at the end of the war; it was found in the 1870s by the owner of the land. Garnett mailed the sabre to Bliss on 28 July 1902. “The sabre came a few days later and was on exhibition at the annual reunion of the First Rhode Island Cavalry Aug. 9, 1902, on which occasion Color Bearer Hugh Hamilton was warmly welcomed as a friend by his former foes.” this pph pp 42.

Fant plantation. 2007 May 14
portion of writing from some photocopies of Helm most of which HB also typed.
1st line is probably something like, ‘[Tom Fant married] Lucy Franklin, and was born at [the family plantation of] 650 acres, located on the Rappahanock….’
“… Lucy Franklin, and was born at… [half of line cut from photocopy] 650 acres, located on the Rappahanock River, about 10 miles from Bealeton. In the ‘big house’ there were eleven other children beside himself [Thomas Albert Fant]. (A brother [40] died at one week of age, shen Tom was 16.) In the slave quarters there were 90 colored folk to clothe, feed, and house—no small undertaking and responsibility for Tom’s father. “Mr. Tom Fant and his next older brother, John, were destined for West Point but went into the service of the Confederate Army instead. “The house, with its square hall, large parlor on one side and ‘down- stairs chamber’ [a sleeping room] on the other, is still standing, owned by Dr. Hamilton’s estate. In the newel post of the front hall is embedded a button from Colonel John Fant’s coat, Mr. Tom’s father. [explain re newel post per HB] “The meat house, spring house, summer kitchen and some of the slave quarters are still standing.…” [perhaps only that the plantation included these buildings]
In the little ‘God’s Acre’ in the rear of the house is a tomb stone which tells a story in itself - “Miss Anna M. Taylor. A native of Leedsville, Dutchess, County, N.Y. Died June 15, 1851, age 22 years. She died at this place while engaged as a teacher in the family of Colonel John Fant. My hope is in the Lord.” “A carved book with a half-opened rose is the stone’s only adornment.” “At the time of the reunion Mr. Tom Fant was still active in mind and body. His keen blue eyes, under still-black, bushy eyebrows, did not require spectacles.” He and his wife, Alice Hord, were married for 70 years.

A. D. Payne diary citation info 2007 May 21 photocopies from Helm are stamped “Not to be reproduced without the permission of The Virginia Historical Society. This material may be protected by the copyright law (title 17, USC).” The photocopies in the Carr Scrapbook file are not prohibitively stamped—a last page gives name and address of a Baltimore couple. Perhaps they owned it at the time that it was copied for the Scrapbook? Thence eventually the diary migrated to the VHS, where it resided when Helm copied it? Helm’s sheets lack the title page and the first two pages of the book. Title page: Daily Pocket Remembrancer for 1863 (New York: J. G. Shaw & Co., 48 and 50 Walker Street). Next two pages give “List of Sundays for Year 1863.” and “Rates of Postage.”—the latter being very interesting as a figure of mail types and the postal system at the time. These and title pp from Carr Scrapbook copy. for citation, treat this same way as a family record in a bible: footnote the bible (diary) in book form, then add who wrote in it and when. was not written before 1863; could be after that year, but probably during it; if the diary entries that follow the roster give clues as to his being imprisoned and when, then that could pinpoint the date more. In addition, could use the names on the roster combined with CSR info to show when it was written, like did with Martin Roll—though, that becomes circular. The dates printed on the diary pages themselves are no help, as he writes across dates, so the dates of entries generally don’t match the dates preprinted on the pages. Alexander Dixon Payne, handwritten in Daily Pocket Remembrancer for 1863 (New York: J. G. Shaw & Co., 1863). [annotations, e.g., re when written; looks like in pencil; written on pages for January 1–10 and on two memoranda pages; book pages are lined w/ heading on each page being one date, month left-justified, day & date centered, larger point, year right-justified; some possibly written while he was prisoner, if diary shows that to be the case; copies in Carr Scrapbook; family member named on those copies; copies in possession Helm; source deposited at VHS; what do the X’s, asterisks, and numerals after the names mean?…]
Need to separate info into short description for Intro under rosters, and what to keep in primary footnote/ bibliography entry.

- FANT, JOHN PENN: son of (2). He was born October 24, 1776. On September 16, 1802 he married Anna Payne (1140). Of this union ten children were born: [16–25]. …
- FANT, MERRYMAN (JOHN MERRYMAN): a son of (10) was also called Jack. He was born October 21, 1812, and died February 11, 1893. He married Lucy Jane Franklin in Fauquier County, Virginia. (She was born June 1812, and died September 1883.) They had thirteen children: [28–40]. From the Fauquier Co., Va., Marriage Bonds, 1759–1854, page 206, we find that Colonel Jack Fant once owned “Highlands” a two story frame house with three chimneys. It was situated on a high bluff above the Rappahannock River. Locust and other trees in the yard looked out over the ruins of an old stone mill known as Fant’s Mill. This is on Route 651, near Remington. Jack was a merchant in Fauquier County, Virginia. …
- FANT, JOHN STANFIELD: a son of (21) was born in 1838 and died of paralysis in Washington, D. C. December 30, 1907. He married Rowena Payne, who died May 28, 1904. They had five children: [41–42, 2603–2605]. Confederate Service Record… [skipped]
- FANT, THOMAS ALBERT: a son of (21) was born September 27, 1841, and died of pneumonia and old age January 2, 1935 at Bealeton, Virginia. In 1863, he married Alice Hoard, who died in March 1933 at the age of 92 years. They had nine children: [43–50, 2609]. Confederate Service Record… [skipped] ([both cited to] Virginia Microfilm Roll 41). On Friday, August 17, 1934, the last three surviving members of the still famous, and once feared Confederate Black Horse Cavalry held its annual reunion of its thinning ranks about 7 miles from Remington, Virginia. Among the three surviving members of this once dashing cavalry organization, which was one of the most daring reconnoitering and raiding groups of the Civil War, was Tom Fant, the senior of the three, who was 93 on September 27. These veterans saw service at the Battles of Manassas, Sunken Road, Fredericksburg and Gettysburg, and were once imprisoned in the Red Stone House,[fn w/ HB descr.] along the road from Warrenton to Washington, which is still standing. From its basement they dug their way out to freedom and even more venturesome feats of espionage penetration into Union lines. … Tom tells of starting forth… [rest above] Mr. Tom Fant was the son of Colonel John M. Fant and of his wife Lucy Franklin, and was born at “Melma” on his parental holdings of 650 acres, located on the Rappahanock River about 10 miles from Bealeton. In the “big house” there were eleven other children beside himself. (A brother [40] died at one week of age, when Tom was 16.) In the slave quarters there were 90 colored folk to clothe, feed, and house - no small undertaking for Tom’s father. Mr. Tom Fant and his next older brother, John, were destined for West Point but went into the service of the Confederate Army instead. The house, with its square hall, large parlor on one side and “down-stairs chamber” on the other, is still standing, owned by Dr. Hamilton’s estate. In the newel post… [know I typed this already]

John Johnson, Robinson Collection 2007 June 26 T
28 January 1984, Joyce J. Burden, granddaughter Letter from Joyce J. Burden (Mrs. O. R. Burden, 4410 Montego Drive, Wichita Falls, Texas 76308) to Ripley Robinson, 28 January 1984, Robinson Collection, owned in 2007 by Lewis Helm (previously cited). Burden was a granddaughter of John Johnson [BH]. “I have the following about my grandfather, John Johnson, and will be glad to share it with you:
- Obituary—died in 1912
- Pictures of John Johnson & Horace Johnson (1823– ) ([pictures] not military)
- Two letters written by J. J. while in prison at Old Capitol, Washington (Think I can get zerox copies. I gave them to a nephew, Tom. E. J.)
- A letter written while in prison at Fort Delaware & smuggled out in a button. … Pics of Lord cemetery evidently were enclosed with this letter. [Ripley’s note for his reply to her states that Laura Bland (Willis) wed Thomas Holmes Robinson. From Burden’s letter & this note, I can see that they are going to find themselves related, as well as Johnson indirectly related to Brown Willis [BH] via a few marriages.]
Feb 11 1898 Dear John I read your letter to Mr. Cooper. I am not going to write [a long letter] to you as you owe me a letter. I send your wife a picture of Lillie and John. [The one of] Lillian is not [a] very good [one] of her now; it was taking [taken] about four years ago when she graduated. She has been teaching school ever since. Of course, she has changed some in that time. Will send some of the others as soon as they have some taking. John does not look as well now as he did when his picture was taking. He has such poor health. “We had a notice tonight of Will Ficklin’s marriage. He married Judson Brown daughter [sic]. Don’t give up the idea of coming to see us all next summer. I hope I will live to see you once more. Love for all As ever your devoted niece L C” “I send a picture of Mr. Cooper taking at the well at Mr. Shannons where we board last summer.”
3 April 1984, Joyce J. Burden, granddaughter Letter from Joyce J. Burden (Mrs. O. R. Burden, 4410 Montego Drive, Wichita Falls, Texas 76308), to Ripley Robinson, 3 April 1984, Robinson Collection, owned in 2007 by Lewis Helm (previously cited). Fannie J. [Johnson] Conner = daughter of John Johnson [BH]; her son was Dr. Wm. J. Conner. Joyce says she met Mabel Willis in 1966, but not Caroline Olinger. [These two were mother or aunt, and aunt of Bettie in Colonial Heights, correspondent on Brown Willis.]
14 April 1984, Ripley Robinson (to Wilson) Letter, Ripley Robinson (Camp Lee Farm, Midland, Virginia 22728) to Sherry Troutman Wilson, 14 April 1984, Robinson Collection, owned in 2007 by Lewis Helm (previously cited). Two versions of this letter abstracted herein are (1) two typed pages and (2) an earlier draft penciled on both sides of a sheet of notebook paper; they are nearly but not precisely identical. “Mrs. Olinger is a granddaughter of Thomas Johnson who was John Johnson’s brother. She, (Caroline Olinger, a cousin of mine) also gave me an excerpt from a genealogy she has of the Johnson family. I am sending you a copy…. “Horace, William and John Johnson joined the Black Horse Cavalry (Co. H., 4th. Va.) the same day. They were brothers. “I have a picture of George W. Johnson on loan to me from the Manassas Museum. They say he also belonged to the Black Horse. I wonder if this could be George A. Johnson and they have the middle initial wrong? I will check this in the National Archives in Washington the next time I go.” [according to this, Caroline Olinger was a great-niece of John Johnson & his BH brothers.]
30 April 1984, Sherry Troutman Wilson, great-granddaughter Letter, S. Wilson (6126 E. Valley Forge, San Antonio, Texas 78233) to Ripley Robinson, 30 April 1984, Robinson Collection, owned in 2007 by Lewis Helm (previously cited). States that she would that June interview John Johnson’s son-in-law, John Conner, then age 100, whose “mind is very sharp and remembers well.” The latter was a history teacher and perhaps founder of a Kingsville museum. Wilson appears from an enclosed photo to be in her late 20s or early 30s in mid-1980s, and possibly could remain a contactable source for anecdotes about J. J. [BH] relayed to her via Conner, a primary source.
Reminder, with this letter also were enclosed three letter from prison

[38] These two entries hint at a significant change in the family’s lifestyle. The labor staff—the slaves—vacates the farm on 16 August 1863. During the next few days, Sally writes of being tired; probably, family members who heretofore had worked on the farm as supervisors and managers suddenly find their roles changing to encompass an increased level of physical work. The Armstrongs being typical of local families, these few lines speak volumes of a shift that was occuring throughout the county and the country.

[182] Letters, Robert Dabney Minor to Robert Randolph [BH], 30 January 1864, and Robert Randolph [BH] to Robert Dabney Minor, 12 February 1864, published as “A Tribute to Merit and Gallantry,” unnamed newspaper, undated but probably during the war based on the subjects of adjoining articles, photocopy of clipping enclosed with Letter, E. Lee Shepard (Assistant Director for Manuscripts and Archives, Virginia Historical Society, 428 North Boulevard, Richmond, Virginia 23221-0311) to author, 21 June 2002, in possession of author in 2007. Also enclosed with Shepard’s letter is a 22 August 1924 note by Landonia Randolph Dashiell [daughter of Robert D. Minor, C. S. N.] stating, “The above letters appeared both in The Sentinel and the Richmond Whig at the time the rifle was awarded.”
Randolph was the brother-in-law of Minor, the latter having wed the former’s sister Landonia (Randolph) in 1850. Though commander of the 4th Virginia Cavalry Regiment for several months by this time, Randolph had been Captain of the Black Horse since 1861and a member of it since 1858; certainly, based on tenure and on statements he makes in others of his letters, his heart lay with his “old company.” Perhaps the famed bravery of the Black Horse was only one of many factors that led Minor to give the rifle to Randolph and suggest placing it with a soldier in Randolph’s first company and command.
[183] Cornelia and Emma.
[184] Meetings of the local Camp of United Confederate Veterans, an organization in which this cavalryman was active throughout his life.
[185] Perhaps he alludes to a proposal? They wed six months after this writing, on 25 February 1875.

[208] Price, Sydney-Smith, 202–205. The middle initial “A” is a misprint, and Payne was never a U. S. Senator. Price quotes Letter, General William [Henry Fitzhugh] Payne to “Richard H.

[209] Channing’s CV article and the article in The Evening Star (cited below) match a different endorsement by Lee with Stuart’s report of the Catlett Incident of 16 April 1864 than the one quoted above from Price. Also, the articles do not quote any endorsement by Sedden.

Lee, General (Headquarters), 20 April 1864.

[241] Stuart’s letter is dated 31 August 1863. He describes as occuring at Thoroughfare Gap an event that is placed at Wilderness and dated 11 May 1864 by Bakeless, Spies of the Confederacy, 367–369. Stuart was killed on 11 May 1864 at Fredericksburg and could not have known and written about Channing’s Wilderness activities on that date. Either Bakeless, or his source, incorrectly dated Channing’s use of his “Stahl’s scout” line, or Channing used this line more than once.
[242] Several sources transcribe this word as “vivacious,” but editor concludes after thorough handwriting analysis with a photocopy of the original letter that the correct transcription is “veracious.” This also fits the letter content, as the word means “accurate, precise;” it would be logical for him to have taken the time to assert to his superior the dependability of intelligience that he did not himself gather firsthand.

He spent less than seven years in the parish, five of which stretched through the long dark days of war. I doubt that any man could have been found in all the land who would have risen more perfectly to the stern duties of this trying time than Dr. Barten. Sympathetic, indomitable in energy, inexhaustible in resource, he went in and out among a people stricken with poverty, torn by alarms and broken-hearted with bereavements to help, to strengthen and console. He closed his pastorate here [St. James] on Sunday, December 3, 1865.’ Rev. John S. Lindsay, Hamilton Parish, 1730–1876 (Baltimore:1876), p. 11.

[418] “The Roster of the Black Horse Cavalry,” dated 1874–1878, no other publication data known, provided to the author by the late John Kenneth Gott, Fauquier historian. This roster was originally designated by the author simply as “V.” The editor believes that the author abstracted the data from this roster without it leaving Gott’s possession, and that the document thenafter remained among Gott’s collection.Photocopy in possession of author. Hereinafter cited as “The Roster of the Black Horse Cavalry,” dated 1874–1878.
[419] The document was printed after 30 August 1874, the death date of James Garnett Priest, because it lists him as deceased. It was printed before 19 July 1878, the death date of James H. Childs, because it lists him as living.
This source also lists Octavus Cason George [BH] as having “removed to Missouri.” He was in Brazos County, Texas, on 1 March 1877. Therefore, either the news of his relocation to Texas had not reached Virginia by the time this source was printed, or “The Roster of the Black Horse Cavalry” was printed before he left Missouri (before March 1877).

[1126] Warrenton Cemetery’s index to a color-coded map of the cemetery located on the curator’s building gives “Edgar Cologne” with stone dates of 1842–1907 as being in lot 95 of the “orange” coded area of the map, per editor’s visit to cemetery on 11 July 2005. Still need correct section name, transcriber’s name, and date of visit if citing tombstone, or a book citation with a page number if citing Baird.

[1880] Her stone, a black granite block with her inscription begun on an unusual sloped top surface, is unique among the others in the plot, most of which are thin vertical sheets of white marble. Inscriptions on the granite are far clearer and easier to read than those on the marble.
[1881] Inscription transcribed by editor, 20 November 2005. The last digit of the birth year is difficult to read, consisting only of two parallel and slightly curved diagonal lines from upper right to lower left. Determination that the digit is “4” was made via comparison with documents in Kip Sperry, Reading Early American Handwriting (Baltimore, Maryland: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1998), 125. Bracketted insertions supplied from Matthew 24:44, King James version bible.
[1882] The numbers carved are 1811, 1858, and 18. The 18 might be 48: If she had had her 47th birthday in 1858, then she would have been in her 48th year. The stone is cracked across the top of the line, “in the 18th year”. However, if the age is correct, then her birth year should be 1841, not 1811. [mid-November 2005]
[1883] Inscription transcribed by editor, 20 November 2005. Bracketted insertions supplied from Psalm 51:17 King James version bible.

From: “Cedar Hill” chapter of an unidentified book, page 375, photocopy. Editor theorizes that the book was published circa 1937 because it cites a 16 April 1937 interview with Mrs. William Worth Smith, two other cavalrymen’s sister.

[2384] Interview, Margaret Robinson, 2 October 2005. Interviewee states that Jean T. Beecroft (219 Dover Road, Warrenton, Virginia 20186-2306) knows more about the Robinsons. She is a first cousin (of Ripley), one of only three Robinsons left of his line; she remembers the people. Her husband was Turner Grimsley, a jailer at the Old Gaol in the 1950s and ’60s. Her mind is sharp.

Provided by Jackie [Lee] (Fauquier Historical Society, Inc., P. O. Box 675, Warrenton, Virginia 20188-0675) to Lewis Helm, 20 September 1997. In possession of Helm (previously cited).
A letter by Lee to Helm refers to the enclosed chart “showing Ripley Robinson’s relation to the Hancock Lee branch of ‘the’ Lees of Virginia”; this line of descent is marked on it in yellow highlight. Ms. Lee and Mrs. Robinson worked together at Warrenton’s Old Gaol Museum. Mr. Robinson, a historian and preservationist, was well versed in county genealogy and particularly his own. The Robinsons doubtless contributed to the chart.

Childs, who died on that date is shown as alive, and Martin dead, in the postwar Black Horse Roster, [document “V.”]

[3188] [Meta Gaskins], “The Black Horse House: (187) 506 Lee Street, Warrenton, Virginia (Built probably in 1822),” circa 1940s, page 9 of 16, one of two versions of a typed manuscript, file name Black Horse House, Virginia Historic Landmark Surveys collection, Fauquier County Public Library, Warrenton, Virginia.
This file lacks its nominal survey, and therefore is one of a handful of these files not normally kept with the rest of the collection. The two versions can be distinguished by two means: first, the changed street number is hand-noted beside the title of one but not the other; second, they differ in length by one page. “The document is a photocopy of a typescript,” per FCPL Research Librarian Vicky Ginther, “Re: Manuscript Collection,” email from vicky.ginther@fauquiercounty.gov (11 Winchester Street, Warrenton, Virginia 20186) to editor, 30 June 2006.
The author’s name can be guessed from an article by M. Louise Evans, “Old Timer Recalls Happy Days At Hamilton House on Lee St,” photocopied clipping from unnamed newspaper, Thursday, November 3, 1949, in the same file: “The history of the house has been compiled in a most delightful paper by Miss Meta Gaskins, when the house was owned by Dr. Hiden, and when he wished to name it and identify it as “Black Horse House,” thinking the famous Cavalry troop was organized there….”
Before its ownership by cavalryman and County Treasurer Hugh Hamilton [BH], the house had long been occupied by General William Henry Fitzhugh Payne [BH] and family.
Hereinafter cited as “The Black Horse House.”
