Charles City County (Va.) Journal of the Board of District School Trustees for School District No. 1 in Chickahominy Township, 1870-1886

Charles City County (Va.) Journal of the Board of District School Trustees for School District No. 1 in Chickahominy Township, 1870-1886, consists of minutes and accounts. The district seems later to be referred to as Chickahominy District, but it is unclear whether this refers to a magisterial or a school district. Minutes from 1870-1879 and 1884 contain information such as the establishment of white and colored schools, taxes for schools, building of schools, teacher contracts and housing, length of school terms, qualifications of superintendents, and teacher pay. The remainder of the volume contains school related accounts dating from 1870-1886. The accounts do not appear to be in any kind of order and have no index.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
