Caroline County

For people that don't know what the Central Rappahannock Heritage Center is, it's the regional archive that serves the Fredericksburg area.

We serve Stafford, Spotsylvania, Caroline County, King George, and, of course, the city of Fredericksburg.

and we store ephemeral material, pictures, documents, ledgers, anything that might get eaten by silverfish or destroyed by water in your basement.

It's a safer place to put your family's historic pieces.

And this is where our collections come from.

We have collections from municipalities.

We have the entire historic collection from court records from Caroline County and Spotsylvania Counties.

So those are really valuable.

Introduction.

John Taylor was born in Orange County, Virginia in 1750, one year before James Madison, and the boys were neighbors, but Taylor afterwards moved to Caroline County, where he lived for the rest of his life and died in 1824 at the age of 74 years.

To distinguish him from others of the same name as himself, he was called John Taylor of Caroline.

He was an officer in the Revolutionary War and ranked with the foremost men of his state.

that afternoon.

According to an NBC article, witnesses saw Delicia walking barefoot along Meadow Farm Road in Caroline County, Virginia.

Delicia's behavior both worried and disturbed passersby and two people even filmed her walking along the road barefoot.

These same passersby tried to intervene and offer her help but according to them she declined.

Her absence was noted by her family and her mother knew that she always kept in contact.

After failing to reach Delicia, her mother contacted the authorities and reported her missing.

From there, the two forces, the Hanover County Sheriff's Office and the Caroline County Sheriff's Office, began retracing Delicia's last movements.

It wasn't long until they found her abandoned silver Ford Explorer in the Kings Dominion Camp Wilderness Campground.

I'm Jonathan Hundley with the week's top stories.

The Caroline County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday voted unanimously to buy Legacy Park Sports in Carmel Church for $3.6 million.

The property includes eight baseball softball fields, a 40,000 square foot indoor facility, a 14,000 square foot indoor turf area and eight batting cages, two full-sized basketball courts, a weight room, and more.

The idea is for the complex to become the county parks and recreation hub.

Captain William Clark, the Redhead.

Born August 1st, 1770, in Caroline County, Tidewater, Virginia.

Father, John Clark of old Virginia Cavalier stock.

Mother, Anne Rogers, descendant of John Rogers, the martyr of Smithfield, burned at the stake in 1555 in England for his religious beliefs.

George Rogers Clark was born at Charlottesville and members of the Clark family frequently ride over there.

Little William early shows a love for frontier life.

After the close of the Revolution, the Clarks remove by horse and wagon from Caroline County, Virginia to western Kentucky and establish themselves in a stockade and blockhouse overlooking the Ohio River three miles below Louisville, then known as the Falls of the Ohio.

Mulberry Hill, the new home, is christened.

Reports indicate that her car was in good working condition and had plenty of gas inside, so why would she leave it behind? There's also a large chunk of time where Delecia's movements are unaccounted for, and the next sighting of her wasn't made until around 3:00 or 4:00 PM that afternoon.

We've housed teachers, we've housed, uh, 911 people, we've housed, uh, CNAs, we've housed, um, you know, uh, admin people at the school, uh, bus drivers.

A number of bus drivers that work for Caroline County now have homes and, you know, stable and just able to take your children to and from school every day.

And, and it's so, it's, we have a proven track record, and we wanna be able to do more.

So five counties is now what we're trying to go for.

And now back to your host, Ted Schubel.

Shubel.Jason Tickle in this morning, Central Rappahannock River Habitat for Humanity.

Lots going on in Caroline County right now, and, uh, I guess in your universe, Ladysmith is the, uh, is the s- the center of the Jason Tickle-

[laughs]

If we've got it in there, I wanna share that with everybody because Miles, who is a, uh, retired, uh...

Sergeant from the, uh, Caroline County Sheriff's Office, a- and a, a highly in demand, uh, law enforcement trainer.

He does a lot of training up in Pennsylvania, outside of Philadelphia.

And so he's, he's like running cases of birch beer back and forth like they used to transport Coors Light.

Uh, I want you to take a listen to something.

You know, uh, Miles Turner is somebody that, uh, many in central Virginia know.

Uh, Miles is a, uh, retired sergeant from the, uh, Caroline County Sheriff's Office.

He was, in fact, a recipient of our Lieutenant Jam McTurnum Blue Friday honor.

The pioneering spirit was strong in the family, the wanderlust that keeps man's nature fluid and adaptable.

This led John, second, to remove first to Albemarle County, and later to Caroline County, where William was born on August 1, 1770, not far from the birthplace of Meriwether Lewis.

When the boy was about fourteen years of age, the family moved once more into the dim west, settling at the place now known as Louisville in Kentucky.

William's elder brother, George Rogers Clark, had preceded the others and had built the first fortification against the Indians at the falls of the Ohio, around which were clustered a few of the rude dwellings of the frontiersmen.
