William Fitzhugh purchased the 22,000 acre tract from the original grantee, John Matthews. He named the tract Ravensworth in honor of his family’s ancestral home in Yorkshire. Fitzhugh brought in slaves and overseers to cultivate the land and also leased parcels of it to Huguenot refugees.","The Fitzhughs built three notable mansions in the area during 1790s: Oak Hill, Ossian Hall, and Ravensworth. William Fitzhugh built the Ravensworth mansion which later came into the possession of the Lee family. Robert E. Lee’s mother died in Ravensworth and later Lee’s wife and family temporarily sought refuge there during the Civil War. The house burned in 1926 due to an arsonist.","Nicholas Fitzhugh built Ossian Hall, which received many illustrious guests including George Washington and George Mason. Long abandoned and heavily damaged by vandals, the Annandale Fire Department burned the house in a controlled fire practice drill to make way for a new subdivision in 1957. Today, Ossian Hall is featured on the logo of the Annandale Fire Department.","Around 1790 Richard Fitzhugh built Oak Hill. Edward and Jane Howrey purchased the house in 1935 and had it restored. It is the only one of the three houses which survives to this day and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.","With the completion of Little River Turnpike in 1811, a little white toll house was erected on the road in Annandale. The toll house served as a toll gate and polling place, where residents of the area later cast votes in favor of secession.","By 1830, the community’s name changed to Annandale. The origin of the name is subject for debate. One theory is Annandale earned its name from a town in Scotland which is located along the Annan River. Another belief is the name comes from Scotland’s Sir Robert de Brus, the “Earl of Annandale”. Regardless of the name’s source, the area officially became known as Annandale when the first “Annandale Post Office” opened in 1837.","The area saw Civil War action as the site of several skirmishes. The Union Army used the Annandale United Methodist Chapel as a temporary headquarters before dismantling it for firewood and winter quarters. Following the Civil War, the area remained fairly rural until the twentieth century when Fairfax County became a popular place to live for D.C. government employees. Starting in the late 1950s, developers bought the remainder of the Ravensworth property and subdivided it for new homes and shopping malls. The site of the Ravensworth mansion is now marked by a Historical Marker. ","The Annandale, Virginia Collection consists of .5 linear feet, spanning the years 1742-1993.

William Fitzhugh purchased the 22,000 acre tract from the original grantee, John Matthews. He named the tract Ravensworth in honor of his family’s ancestral home in Yorkshire. Fitzhugh brought in slaves and overseers to cultivate the land and also leased parcels of it to Huguenot refugees.","The Fitzhughs built three notable mansions in the area during 1790s: Oak Hill, Ossian Hall, and Ravensworth. William Fitzhugh built the Ravensworth mansion which later came into the possession of the Lee family. Robert E. Lee’s mother died in Ravensworth and later Lee’s wife and family temporarily sought refuge there during the Civil War. The house burned in 1926 due to an arsonist.","Nicholas Fitzhugh built Ossian Hall, which received many illustrious guests including George Washington and George Mason. Long abandoned and heavily damaged by vandals, the Annandale Fire Department burned the house in a controlled fire practice drill to make way for a new subdivision in 1957. Today, Ossian Hall is featured on the logo of the Annandale Fire Department.","Around 1790 Richard Fitzhugh built Oak Hill. Edward and Jane Howrey purchased the house in 1935 and had it restored. It is the only one of the three houses which survives to this day and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.","With the completion of Little River Turnpike in 1811, a little white toll house was erected on the road in Annandale. The toll house served as a toll gate and polling place, where residents of the area later cast votes in favor of secession.","By 1830, the community’s name changed to Annandale. The origin of the name is subject for debate. One theory is Annandale earned its name from a town in Scotland which is located along the Annan River. Another belief is the name comes from Scotland’s Sir Robert de Brus, the “Earl of Annandale”. Regardless of the name’s source, the area officially became known as Annandale when the first “Annandale Post Office” opened in 1837.","The area saw Civil War action as the site of several skirmishes.

He graduated from Canisius College and received a medical degree from Georgetown University.","In 1951, the pair met at the Children’s Hospital of the District of Columbia when Barsanti was appointed Instructor in Pediatrics and Bunce appointed Assistant in Pediatrics. In 1953, the two formed their own pediatric practice in Annandale, Virginia in a converted house at the intersection of Gallows Road and Columbia Pike.","House calls were routine at the time. Their territory extended from Annandale to Kamp Washington and from Springfield to Chain Bridge. Fairfax Hospital did not exist until 1963, so when Dr. Barsanti or Dr. Bunce were on call for newborn visits, one of them would start at Alexandria Hospital and then travel to hospitals in Washington D.C. and then cross back into Virginia to Arlington Hospital and then home to the practice on Gallows Road. One of them worked in the office while the other made house calls and hospital visits. The pair would see sick children, conduct well physicals and immunizations as well as minor surgery. Their laboratory services included throat cultures, blood counts, and urine analysis.","In 1963, Barsanti and Bunce moved to the newly constructed Annandale Doctors Building at 7501 Little River Turnpike, where the practice continues today known as Annandale Pediatrics. The pair continued practicing into the early 1990s. "],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe Dr. Ardwin H. Barsanti and Dr. John D.
