About the Book

Excerpt from Halifax County, Virginia, 1907: A Handbook, Prepared Under the Direction of the Board of Supervisors

The County of Halifax in virginia lies in. The Middle Region of the state and extends over half a degree of latitude - from the Virginia - North Carolina boundary parallel, 36° to the 37th parallel and a little beyond.\ The 79th parallel of longitude traverses the county. Hali fax county forms a part of the great undulating plain which gently rises from the limit of tidewater to the low, broken ranges of hills that make the outlines of the Blue Ridge' Mountains. There is the width of one county between Halifax and the Piedmont country. The mountains to the west protect us from cyclones and tornadoes. The gulf stream tempers our climate, our winters are short, we.have extremes neither of heat nor of cold. Rain is abundant. Streams and springs are everywhere. We. Have health. Our lands respond to good treatment and yield wealth. Our location makes it practicable for us to raise not only one crop a year, but two crops a year or even three crops a year. We are re-discovering that ours is a stock country, that stock - cattle and sheep and hogs - pay and pay handsomely if we give them half a chance. Our tim ber has been culled, but we have timber in plenty, and we have wood by the million cords. Although an agricultural county we manufacture and we have only just begun to see what the possibilities are in the manu facturing line. Our waterpower is such that our two great rivers might be half lined with mills and factories; our two lesser rivers likewise; and our smaller streams could furnish almost as much power again. Although an agri cultural county we have ten banks with deposits aggregating a million and a quarter dollars and more. Our county has been financed with home capital, and what that means will be understood when it is remarked that more than one of our bank officials came home-after the civil war to face ruin. Halifax is an agricultural county, but its mineral deposits are of great value. Grain lands, pasturage, to bacco lands, fruit lands - river bottoms and highlands power sites, mines, climate, healthfulness - it is the truth that we have much to offer, and the whole within but 150 miles of the sea coast, direct communication, and Wash ington and the northern cities only a few hours away.
